Water, water everywhere And not a drop to drink Desiccated and desperate There’s fire in our sinks Bid out the aquifers and ration supply Locked up and carted away While smoke fills the sky Blood trickles forth from a dry cracked throat Tracing lines in your esophagus A blood filled stomach swells and groans Pulse races as Your heart runs dry Capillaries explode in your eyes What A maddening state we’re in The juice of life tainted with poison We treat the clean like a rarity Supply demands artificial scarcity Nine decade contracts doled out When will you see we’ve been sold out? Can’t trust the taps You don’t know the origin Lead-lined? Not mine! It’s so much worse Flint was just the tip of the iceberg The hills burn brighter than before Another drought, a firestorm Waiting on a miracle No god here, only capital Burnt crops, livestock, and the evergreens Rainforest thinned to a Savannah’s scene They’ll let it burn down to a windswept dust bowl We’ll settle this on Fury Road 400 gallons stolen each minute The water wars have started and they’re winning I’d like the break Brabeck’s neck Let’s take this water back The hills burn brighter than before Another drought, a firestorm Waiting on a miracle There’s no god here, only capital Five years on Five years gone They may as well be dancing for rain Five years on Five years gone They may as well be dancing for rain Panic Let’s overthrow Frantic Go for their throat We’re last defense against this extortion Let’s put an end to privatized resources Five years on Five years gone We may as well be dancing for rain Five years on Five years gone We may as well be dancing for rain
