poison the well – 12/23/1993 0:00 lyrics
tell me what’s gone wrong?
i tilt my head there, under the faucet when i turn it on
dry as paper, call the neighbors
who’s to blame for what’s going on?
in the dark without a clue i’m just the same as you
oh, they tell us there’s poison here in the well
that someone’s been a bit untidy and there’s been a small spill
not a lot, no, just a drop, there you are mistaken you know you are
i wonder just how long they knew our well was poisoned
but they let us just drink on
oh, they tell us there’s here poison in the well
that someone’s been a bit untidy that there’s been a small spill
and all that it amounts to is a tear in a salted sea
that someone’s been a bit untidy they’ll have it cleaned up in a week
but the week is over and now it’s grown into years
since, i was told that i should be calm, there’s nothing to fear here
but, i drank that water for years, my wife and my children
so, tell me, where to now
if your fight for a bearable life can be fought and lost in your backyard?
oh, don’t tell us there’s poison here in the well
that someone’s been a bit untidy, that there’s been a small spill
all that it amounts to is a tear in a salted sea
that someone’s been a bit untidy, they’ll have it cleaned up in a week
