Up In Smoke Lyrics

They took away my garden To make room for a chemical plant I feel my country's arteries harden With the aid of a government grant Chorus: We are not a bunch of upstarts Just out l ooking for a cause We hunger for our justice And not applause We don't just make peace signs and meditate We don't take this thing as a joke We just want to relate - we're in a pretty bad state And we don't want to go up in smoke My water has got cancer And the rivers have all dried While I watch my country practice [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/up-in-smoke-lyrics-indigo-girls.html ] Nuclear suicide Chorus Don't think it's impossible To see this thing come clean We're going to save this poor old world's head From the guillotine Chorus/Solo They took away my garden (My water has got cancer) To make room for a chemical plant (And the rivers have all dried) I feel my country's arteries harden (While I watch my country practice) Nuclear suicide Chorus Oh Lord, we don't want to see our children go up in smoke
