  1. Sonic Wetland

From the recording Perdido

Lyrics

Sonic Wetland
To the east is the cooling tower it almost rusted through once
A close call a minute an hour
All this wasted, the sounds the sights the scents gone
Irradiated like a cancer or a bomb
It was doing no harm keeping costs down
Without a plume of smoke around
We won’t discuss the rods right now that just wouldn’t be right
Steam rolls away from the tower with no plume of smoke in sight

Melt down in a sonic wetland
What is the price how much the cost?
If the unthinkable happens
A sonic wetland is lost
(ambient wetland sounds)
Spreading the poison because they spread the myth
Did they spread the manure instead
The words and actions…
Who was deceived we simply wanted to believe

Safe and cheap and clean a sonic wetland (3x)

Melt down in a sonic wetland
What is the price how much the cost?
If the unthinkable happens
A sonic wetland is lost
