Down Old Hanford Way

Gaggle: Seattle
Environment & Energy Local Issues

South of the border
down ol’ Hanford way
there are some storage tanks
of nuclear waste bubbling away
the fallout could blow here
and ruin our day
from south of the border
down ol’ Hanford way

For forty-odd years
no warnings were given
“No need to worry, dears
about radioactive iodine.
The tanks are not rusting
the rivers are clear,
South of the border
Down ol’ Hanford way.”

But this is all
B.S.we know
Aye-yi-yi-yi
Aye-yi-yi-yi!
