10,000 Maniacs - Poison In The Well
Tell me what`s gone wrong. I tilt my head there, under the faucet, but
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.
O, they tell us there`s poison in the well, that someone`s been a bit
untidy
and there`s been a small spill. Not a lot, no, just a drop. But 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.
O, they tell us there`s poison in the well, that someone`s been a bit
untidy
and there`s been a small spill. All that it amounts to is a tear in a
salted
sea. 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.
Tell me, where to now, if your fight for a bearable life can be fought
and
lost in you backyard? O, don`t tell us there`s poison 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. Someone`s been a bit untidy,
they`ll
have it cleaned up in a week.
