Like stacks and stacks of rats on rafts
Clutching anything we can
Like stacks and stacks of rats on rafts
Weight of the world [bad word]  our backs

Tooth for a tooth
Eye for an eye
You know it's the [bad word] And this is why

Poisoned water poisons the mind

Backed in the corner
Drinking poisoned water
Paying for the sins of our fore-fathers
Who've beaten and cheated and raped our mother
Ever since getting kicked out of the garden

Can't you see?
Are you blind?
There's no more teeth
And this is why

Poisoned water poisons the mind
