Don'T Drink the Water
In Flint, Michigan, you may wind up dead
if you drink too much water that contains lead.
The city left its main water source from Detroit.
Drawing water from the river now does not look so adroit.
It was a move made in order to save money.
Folks from Flint said the water tasted funny.
All the mayor and governor could deliver was an apology.
This has the citizens in an uproar and very angry.
So what do you do if you are living in Flint?
Use the water there with a very severe stint.
