From the Fountains and the Mountains
It's poisoned and polluted by the people as it flows along its way
Don't go near the water, children, see the fish all dead up on the shore
Don't go near the water, water isn't water anymore
I took my boy fishing to my old favorite fishing hole
I had caught many fish out of that deep, clear water from the time I was a boy like him
After we had fished a few minutes, he said,
Did you get a bite yet, Daddy?
I said, I think I got a nibble, son
Me too, he said
Then he said, Daddy, if we catch a fish, can we eat him?
I said, well, there was a time, son
This water's bad now, and it might not be safe to eat the fish
But there was a time
There was a time the air was clean
And you could see forever across
across the plains
The wind was sweet as honey
And no one had ever heard of acid rain
We're torturing the earth
And pouring every kind of evil in the sea
We've violated nature
And our children have to pay the penalty
Don't go near the water, children
See the fish all dead up on the shore
Don't go near the water, cause the water isn't water anymore.
Don't go near the water, children, see the fish all knit upon the shore.
Don't go near the water, cause the water isn't water anymore.
