Wicked Water

Faucet water, At the Wappinger Falls Natural poison, Gets our galls, When first here, No one warned me, Two months on the toilet and I finally could see Don't drink the water, It's nasty stuff They give us reports, From chemical anaylizers Our water is pristine they claim, As they drink their Poland Springs Will showering in this water, Melt me away? I don't know, No one will say.... Maybe I'll melt, Like the Witch in the Wizard of Oz, I don't much care, And that's because; I'll video tape my showers, My melting will be on tape, Hopefully my heirs Will make the jury gape, More money for my brood, To bad too late I understood.
