Catfish (with a lead belly)

Movement To Contact

Some people talk to me
Ask me what I do for a living
Use some rocks to grind my grain
Little bit of whiskey to tickle the brain
Valley fever giving me rest
Smokestack choked out to my west
Drink a little of the H2O
Give it a little of the ole gusto

Are we to discuss this
Is the tape running?
This water is filled with disease
Are we left to dine on
The powerplants finest
Catfish with a lead belly

Some people talk to me
Stop coughing and listen please
I might have lost a lung
Oh well…I got another one…
Write a letter to your congressmen
He’s busy will be back in 10
10 minutes, 10 seconds, 10 days….
Who cares…he’d lie anyway….

Are we to discuss this
Is the tape running?
This water is filled with disease
Are we left to dine on
The powerplants finest
Catfish with a lead belly

Some people talk to me
Think they might just set me free
Must be a dusty breeze
Not the black soot on my knees
Eyes are left burning red
And there goes my head again
They figure we’ll die someday
And if we speak up…They’ll just pay $

Are we to discuss this
Is the tape running?
This water is filled with disease
