Neurological Slavery

by not-nick

The river runs it runs with greed The fast cash of the lucky Makes it's way to sea And poison floats with this poison greed The will of millions, cry out silently Because they have no idea about this poison greed Nurotoxicity Poisoning our cities The doctor tells the single mother To eat an apple everyday Which only supplement her daily Methlyphenidate Neurotoxicity And baby was born just few pounds light The tired mother relieved Baby swaddled in a sheet Of polybrominate Neurotoxicty But all ends were it began The conspirers of greed Don't have to loose a thing The toxic poisonous sludge doesn't run through their garden greens Somethings Fish-y Or is it all the mercury? East of the railroad tracks The man smoking crack Behind a tree Now breathing PCB's From car exhaust and factory Poor junkie breathes Neuroxicity And the lucky on lookers equipped to Notice such a thing or anything Watch in disbelief They should all find relief, the poison is fair It flows through everybody, everywhere For nothing makes the people sing Like a mix ethanol and manganese Neurotoxicty Spin round and round and sing This is called brainwashing Drink your mix of ethanol and manganese Watch your team throw the polyethylene Trickle down, trickle Your loosing the cells right from your brain While a doctor writes you a prescription to go insane After years of manganese and PCB's Jimmy B is lost in the sea of toxins But mom knows best He's a hyper brat Takes him to the doctor to get him Correct Doctor gives Jimmy a prescription The devil's speed Dextroamphetamine Jimmy was focused Jimmy didn't bother Jimmys brain a couple grams lighter The doctor intrigued gets a free meal To switch Jimmy's speed Four more Jimmies Doctor can vacation expenses paid By the sea Jimmy keeps on taking his pills Then over night Jimmy hits his first pipe Now that's some fucking good speed And the story goes Without relief The government we know Deligates neurological slavery
