What Do You Know About Lead

| [Verse 1] They told me “It’s all landfill Mate You can’t build here It’s too late.” But the soil’s been tested They said with a grin Nothing too serious Nothing within [Chorus] Oh What do you know about lead? Buried deep Where the roots won’t tread Hidden truths in the ground we spread What do you know about lead? [Verse 2] Old cans Old pipes The ghost of a town Rusting stories buried down Kids play on the edge They breathe it in The breeze don’t ask where it’s been [Prechorus] The rain It falls The river runs red Tell me now What do you know about lead? [Chorus] Oh What do you know about lead? Buried deep Where the roots won’t tread Hidden truths in the ground we spread What do you know about lead? [Bridge] There’s a silence in the earth A hum in the breeze A whisper from the dirt Carried by the trees And the warning signs They’ve all turned grey History don’t just fade away |
