Album: Bucky Fellini

I've got a kid his name is Scott
He's goin' blind and his blood just will not clot
The doctors line in rows to stick tubes up Scotty's nose

There is the 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

The chemical plant across the street
Leaves off steam that colours our white sheets
It's been happening for years
Now I'm crying rainbow tears

One day my dog went out to play
Instead of grey
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
