Tire Fire
---------------------------------------

Black smoke.
It's scratching at my throat.
Black smoke
I taste it when I choke on your
Black smoke
It's burning in my eyes. It's carving up my insides.
I see it in the air. It seems that you don't care.

But I'm talking to you 'cause I want you to think about what you're doing.
I'm talking to you 'cause I'm sick of the poison that you're spewing.
We all share the air we breathe. Think about your family.
'Cause we don't need no more black smoke.

Black smoke.
It's coming out your tail pipe
Black smoke
and I know you know it ain't right
Black smoke
It's coming from the factory. Offending my olfactory.
It smells like hell on earth. Don't you know what life is worth?

I'm talking to you 'cause I want you to think about how you're acting.
I'm talking to you 'cause there's other people you're impacting.
Take some responsibility and have a little sympathy.
'Cause we don't want no more black smoke

Black smoke
You think this is a joke?
Black smoke
No matter how you vote you get
Black smoke
It's clouding up my vision. You made the wrong decision.
It's filling up my lungs. The damage has been done.

But I'm talking to you 'cause it's not to late to change our direction.
I'm talking to you while I still have a voice to raise my objection.
We've got to stop burning all those tires and start putting out the fires
'cause we can't take no more

Yeah I'm talking to you but it feels like I'm getting no reaction.
I'm talking to you but it might be time for some direct action.
We've got to make the polluters pay if we want to see a brighter day.
It's time to take a stand.
The future's in our hands.
Stop buying what they sell.
Don't believe the lies they tell.
It's just a bunch of black smoke.
