Everyday life has become a health risk 

The wind shifted

back in the fifties particles drifted

A wave set in motion

the Pacific Ocean

test of the hydrogen bomb

There from would come

too close to home

ships from the test

put to  rest

and convalesce with heavily armed guard

in Hunter's Point shipyard

Heavy metal sandblast

Facemask

Deoxidize

Remove the radiation from the outside

a hazardous cargo

dumped into the harbor

went farther then that though

Sand from the blasting

made into sidewalks

played on by kids

that just got over chicken-pox

Glowing faces

All races

Hop-scrotch bare feet

on Geiger counter concrete

Mother prepares a fruit salad treat to eat

sprayed with messed up pesticides

none have been tested for health effects

on the side

Has everyday life become a health risk

Meanwhile, back in the backyard,

father lights-up a barbeque fire

and he sizzles hormone injected meat

on top of a toxic source of heat

He becomes light headed

as the toxins easily meet

with the lite beer in his head and

he glances to his portable television set

from his eyes he wipes the double vision sweat

visions of white supremacists

posing as right conservationists

holding an Aryan agrarian Woodstock

lead the stray sheep into the flock

hookin' em in with the music of flower power

change their energy into fire power

Has everyday life become a health risk

All of a sudden

acid rain falls from the sky

and gets into the nuclear family picnic pie

not to mention their Kool-Aid

The nuclear family sits down to lunch

They munch it down with acid rain punch

and they begin to hallucinate

disassociate

the pain in their bodies

from the pain in their minds

They go inside and remember a time

before the world went

completely blind

When people grew bald naturally

no mutations

unlike Skinheads

and chemo-therapy patients
