I`ve got a question can you answer me
Do you sleep when you`re alone
Hey all you captains of industry
You line your pockets but you poison me

You`re sitting on the edge of an emergency
Tell me how you sleep at night

Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something`s got to change

You work behind a veil of secrecy
You got the power on your side
I`ve got a question will you answer me
Where will you run where will you hide

You`re sitting on the edge of an emergency
Staring at a loaded gun

Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something`s got to change

Hey all you short sighted business men
There`s more to this than meets the eye
You keep on taking we pay the price
Just take a look up at the sky

We`re staring at the face of an emergency
You`re looking out for number one

Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something`s got to change
