Alternative Tentacles Records - Cesspools In Eden Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Poison is bubbling
Beneath your dream home
Buried there years before
Kid runs in crying
From playing in the garden
"Mommy, I burned my hands!"

[Bridge 1]
"What's making our eyes so itchy?
Don't rub 'em, they'll swell up"

[Bridge 2]
Oh... Oh, oh, oh
It's a big waste dump
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah

[Verse 2]
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
You'll find our acid baths
[Chorus]
Cesspools in Eden
Oozing away

[Verse 3]
Groundwater's poisoned
Air stings like hell
The lines for doctors grow long
Over martinis
The company laughs
"We don't owe you a damn thing"

[Bridge 1]
But what about
All these fainting spells?
How'd you like a lick
From my open sores?

[Bridge 2]
And, oh... Oh, oh, oh
Why are our babies stillborn?
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah

[Verse 4]
A storage tank's leaking
It's about to explode
Why evacuate
When you can watch the fun?
Nothing happens here
Get out the lawn chairs
We'll drink pink lemonade
And watch Martinez burn
[Chorus]
Cesspools in Eden
Oozing away
Leak by the day

[Verse 5]
The land we sold you
Is right atop our acid pits
We fill them by the truckload
In the dead of night
There's a thousand more toxic
Tips of the iceberg
We pay a little bribe
Or we just don't report them

[Pre-Chorus]
And see what you get?

[Chorus]
Cesspools in Eden
In Eden
No accident
Just a little of our greed-fueled negligence

[Verse 6]
So, you've found the proof why
Your cancer rate's shot up
But what ya gonna do
When we've got all the cards?
Times Beach, Rocky Flats
Love Canal, and Bhopal
Merry Christmas, hostages
From the folks that care
[Chorus]
Cesspools in Eden
In Eden
In Eden
In Eden

[Outro]
Have a nice day
