Poison In The Well - 10,000 Maniacs[00:00:00]

Written by：Dennis Drew/Merchant Natalie/Peter Asher[00:00:01]

Tell me[00:00:13]

What's gone wrong[00:00:16]

I tilt my head there under the faucet[00:00:20]

When I turn it on[00:00:24]

Dry as paper[00:00:26]

Call the neighbors[00:00:29]

Who's to blame for what's going on[00:00:33]

In the dark without a clue I'm just the same as you[00:00:40]

O they tell us there's poison in the well[00:00:46]

That someone's been a bit untidy[00:00:52]

And there's been a small spill[00:00:57]

Not a lot[00:01:02]

No just a drop[00:01:05]

There you are mistaken you know you are[00:01:09]

I wonder[00:01:15]

Just how long[00:01:18]

They knew our well was poisoned[00:01:22]

But they let us just drink on[00:01:25]

O they tell us there's poison in the well[00:01:28]

That someone's been a bit untidy[00:01:34]

And there's been a small spill[00:01:39]

And all that it amounts to[00:01:42]

Is a tear in a salted sea[00:01:44]

That someone's been a bit untidy[00:01:47]

They'll have it cleaned up in a week[00:01:52]

But the week is over[00:01:55]

And now it's grown into years since I was told that[00:01:58]

I should be calm there's nothing to fear[00:02:05]

Here[00:02:11]

But I drank that water for years my wife and my children[00:02:13]

So tell me[00:02:19]

Where to now[00:02:23]

If your fight for a bearable life[00:02:26]

Can be fought[00:02:29]

And lost in your backyard[00:02:30]

O don't tell us there's poison in the well[00:02:33]

That someone's been a bit untidy[00:02:39]

That there's been a small spill[00:02:44]

And all that it amounts to[00:02:47]

Is a tear in a salted sea[00:02:49]

That someone's been a bit untidy[00:02:52]

They'll have it cleaned up in a week[00:02:57]
