Poison In The Well

	Tell me what's gone wrong?
	I tilt my head there, under the faucet when I turn it on
	Dry as paper, call the neighbors
	Who's to blame for what's going on?
	In the dark without a clue I'm just the same as you
	Oh, they tell us there's poison here in the well
	That someone's been a bit untidy and there's been a small spill
	Not a lot, no, just a drop, there you are mistaken you know you are
	I wonder just how long they knew our well was poisoned
	But they let us just drink on
	Oh, they tell us there's here poison in the well
	That someone's been a bit untidy that there's been a small spill
	And all that it amounts to is a tear in a salted sea
	That someone's been a bit untidy they'll have it cleaned up in a week
	But the week is over and now it's grown into years
	Since, I was told that I should be calm, there's nothing to fear here
	But, I drank that water for years, my wife and my children
	So, tell me, where to now
	If your fight for a bearable life can be fought and lost in your backyard?
	Oh, don't tell us there's poison here in the well
	That someone's been a bit untidy, that there's been a small spill
	All that it amounts to is a tear in a salted sea
	That someone's been a bit untidy, they'll have it cleaned up in a week
