about
For the people of Flint
lyrics
No the don't race Impalas any more
Even though the broke their backs on the factory floor
The gas is unleaded, but the waters not these days
They used to work for maximum gain, no they just drink maximum pain
So they moved up North
From a Southern town
Made a fair days wage
It was going down
You could by a house
Work the factory
Raise a glass in the air, as we cheers to a hope and a though of a thing
That we once called American Dreams
Times were rough in the 80s
The jobs all went away
Working twice the hours for half the pay and no one ever gets a break
Take me off of the line, now they got a robot to replace me
The future isn't right while I lye awake at night
I wonder when the'll save me
No the don't race Impalas any more
Even though the broke their backs on the factory floor
The gas is unleaded, but the waters not these days
They used to work for maximum gain, no they just drink maximum pain
One hundred miles away Nestle's sucking it up
But I can't get a drink from my sink
This bottled water baby, it'll give me time to think
Winter's coming again, and it's cold to shower this way
For last 4 years been shedding tears and theirs nothing to replace them
