poisoned water

like stacks and stacks of rats on rafts

clutchin' anything we can

like stacks and stacks of rats on rafts

weight of the world crushin' our backs

tooth for a tooth

eye for an eye

you know it's the truth

and this is why

poisoned water poisons the mind

backed in the corner

drinkin' poisoned water

payin' for the sins of our fore-fathers

who've beaten and cheated and raped our mother

ever since gettin' kicked out of the garden

can you see?

are you blind?

there's no more teeth

and this is why

poisoned water poisons the mind

poisoned water poisons the mind

poisoned water poisons the mind
