lyrics

My grandson is four years old; he’s playing house--he’s washin’ dishes--like in some story that I told about our land when the water was clean, before we signed a contract with the gas extraction company. Hold me back, hold me back: I just wanted Chris and Katie to have nice clothes on their backs, now I wanna kill, I wanna kill ‘cause it’s 25 years later and I’m still payin’ medical bills, and goddamn I miss Jill. Hold me down, hold me down, I don’t understand what happens when they pump chemicals into the ground, I just wanna live and have somethin’ to live for, and now I’m tellin’ little Maple that water comes from the store, just like milk comes from the store, our chickens don’t lay anymore; they’re like modern day dinosaurs. E-N-D-O-C-R-I-N-E disrupting. Hold me down, hold me down, I don’t understand what happens when they pump chemicals into the ground, I just wanna live and have somethin’ to live for, and now I’m tellin’ little Maple that water comes from the store, just like milk comes from the store, and vegetables come from the store, no control anymore.
