Текст песни Dead Kennedys Cesspools In Eden

Poison is bubbling

Beneath your dreamhome

Buried there years before

Kid runs in crying

From playing in the garden

"mommy, I burned my hands!"

"whats making our eyes so itchy? "

"dont rub emtheyll swell up."

Oh oh oh oh

Its the big waste dump

Oh, yeah

We built your ticky-tacky houses

On landfill soil

To cover up a gift

We left you years before

Of toxic chemicals

And leaking gas

Just dig a little while,

Youll find our acid baths

Cesspools

In eden

Oozing away

Groundwaters poisoned

Air stings like hell

The lines for doctors grow long

Over martinis

The company laughs

"we dont owe you one damn thing."

But what about all these fainting spells?

Howd you like a lick

From my open sores

And oh.oh oh oh

Why are our babies stillborn?

A storage tanks leaking

Its about to explode

Why evacuate

When you can watch the fun

Nothing happens here

Get out the lawn chairs

Well drink pink lemonade

And watch martinez burn

Cesspools

In eden

Oozing away

Cesspools in eden

Leak by the day

The land we sold you

Is right atop our acid pits

We fill them by the truckload

In the dead of night

Theres thousands more toxic

Tips of the iceberg

We pay a little bribe

Or we just dont report them

And see what you get

Cesspools

In eden

In eden

No accident

Just a little of our greed-fueled negligence

So youve found the proof why

Your cancer rates shot up

But whatcha gonna do

When weve got all the cards

Times beach, rocky flats,

Love canal & bhopal

Merry christmas, hostages

From the folks who care

Cesspools in eden

Oozing away

Cesspools in eden

Leak by the day

Cesspools in eden

Have a nice day
