5. POISON
(CD1, Track 11, 4:32)

I see the Exxon Valdez as she runs aground
I see the massive oil spill in Prince William Sound
One thousand miles of shoreline – black Alaskan crude
How many tragedies to change our attitude

I see a plume of smoke rise in Chernobyl skies
I see the fear and panic in the locals’ eyes
In number-four reactor, the core has melted down
Radio active fallout spreading all around

Poison lands and poison in the air
Poison in the oceans, poison everywhere

 

I see the polar ice caps melt into the sea
I see the waters rising undeniably
People in coastal lowlands flee to higher ground
Massive destructive forces witnessed all around

Poison lands and poison in the air
Poison in the oceans, poison everywhere

 

I see a hurricane approaching from the east
I see the broken levies way down in New Orleans
Pictures of Nature’s fury on my TV screen
Global climactic changes like we’ve never seen

Poison lands and poison in the air
Poison in the oceans, poison everywhere
Poison lands and poison in the air
Poison in the oceans, poison everywhere
It’s poison, Man’s poison
