I've got a kid

His name is Scott

He's going blind

And his blood just will not clot

The doctors line in rows

To stick tubes up Scotty's nose

There is a field

Where Scotty used to play

Until Ortho Orange Number 42

Was dumped in it one day

I think it's so funny

I laugh until I cry

Just me and God

Watching Scotty die

Just me and God

Watching Scotty die

Chemical plants across the street

Leaves off steam that colors our white sheets

It's been happening for years

Now I'm crying rainbow tears

One day our dog went out to play

Instead of gray he came back colored yellow

The chemical men said stay mellow

It happens all the time

Now Scotty's skin is lime

I think it's so funny

I laugh until I cry

Just me and God

Watching Scotty die

Just me and God

Watching Scotty die
