Something in the water, The neighbors all lament. Can't trust the companies, Can't trust government.
But we know, you know, they know, Though science can't say why we're sick, We'll ferret out the truth This isn't just some lawyer's trick.
Hired that lawyer who wrote A Civil Action, Played in the film by John Travolta. Without him digging up the truth, You think the companies would've told ya?
Something in the water,
The neighbors all lament.
Can't trust the companies,
Can't trust government.
But we know, you know, they know,
Though science can't say why we're sick,
We'll ferret out the truth
This isn't just some lawyer's trick.
Hired that lawyer who wrote A Civil Action,
Played in the film by John Travolta.
Without him digging up the truth,
You think the companies would've told ya?
Now, I know the numbers of the sick
Could just be the result of chance and the like,
But how can something as dry as statistics
Hold back tears over a sick little tyke?
Science only goes so far,
But sorrow, the river, and the pockets of the companies are deep.
