If you visit an American city
You’ll find it very
pretty.
Just two things of which you must
beware:
Don’t drink the water and don’t
breathe the air.
Pollution, pollution,
They got smog and sewage and mud.
Turn on your tap and get hot and
cold running crud.
Just go out for a breath of air,
And you’ll be ready for Medicare.
The city streets are really quite a
thrill,
If the hoods don’t get you , the
monoxide will,
Pollution, pollution,
Wear a gas mask and a veil,
Then you can breathe, as long as you
don’t inhale
Lots of things there you can drink,
But stay away from the kitchen sink.
Throw out your breakfast garbage,
and I’ve got a hunch
That the folks downstream will drink
it for lunch
So go to the city, see the crazy
people there,
Like lambs to the slaughter
They’re drinking the water
And breathing (cough…) the air.
