Lyrics to Three Mile Island
Three Mile Island Video:
Kids in the schoolyard, cows in the field In a Pennsylvania town it's another day But at Three Mile Island something was wrong In the power plant not two miles away A valve jammed open and the holding tanks blew And the leak spread for miles around. With a bubble of hydrogen trapped under the dome That plant damn near melted down. CHORUS: Three Mile Island blew down their lies Next time it happens how many will die? Got our eyes on the future, got our feet on the ground Gonna shut down the nukes, shut 'em down Shut down the nukes, shut 'em down. Metro Edison said one thing, the feds the reverse The TV and press had their fun Out of all the confusion just one thing came through No one knew what the hell was going on. Evacuation would have ended the game So they said there was no reason to go But they didn't say too much about the workers at the plant Who as always caught the brunt of the blow. CHORUS The sun it shines, the wind it blows There's a thousand different ways to save fuel So when some corporation tells me we got no choice They might as well be calling me a fool. They say the system worked and no one was killed They say they'll make 'em safer than before But they're gambling with our children and they're gambling with the world And their money don't seem worth dying for. CHORUS
