Black Mayonnaise

Late September '78
Disastrous spill discovered decades too late
Polluting the creek, tainting the soil
Millions of gallons of hazardous oil

Drill out the black
You're out of time
Never look back
This toxic grime

Out of your hands, the onus and blame
Your skin of evil has been shed away
Layers of filth, fathoms of waste
Manifesting into black mayonnaise

Drill out the black
You're out of time
Never look back
This toxic grime

Brick behemoths
Concrete beds
Caustic runoff
Toxic spreads

Centuries of ripe decay
Waterways coagulate
Surface sheen reflects the gray
Of industry's emaciated face

Brick behemoths
Concrete beds
Caustic runoff
Toxic spreads

Drill out the black
You're out of time
Never look back
This toxic grime
Drill out the black
Will eat your mind
