O-oh, say can you see,
through the smog and the blight,
the rampant release of industrial waste streaming?
Through our polluted air,
strong enough to ignite,
oxygen-starved,
we cough and choke while we’re dreaming
of the days of clean air,
before we were aware
of foul poisons produced by big industry’s affairs.
Oh, say, will the-ee EPA continue to ignore and wa-aive
Blame on those who are at fault
who’ll send us all to our graves?
