Lyrics
The old man looks at the camera and says
It's killing our forest, our rivers and streams
Is this what our government means?
The plant in the city that polutes the sky
with the brown dust particles that get in our eyes
and now we're dying from sulfer dioxcide
We got a hundred thousand out of work in our nation
Accute Bronchitis is affecting our scriplings
I think the Czech's our sickening
They live in the houses where there's no meat
and the soft brown coal that they use for heat
is the cause of their dying state
I need that coal to heat my home
Give me that coal to heat my home
