Story behind the song
I love the Austin City Parks. They have been polluted by industry, and industrial products. This is a song that calls attention to that with images like 'Phantom of The Opera' and 'Beauty and The Beast'. It's sad, and scary.
Lyrics
VERSE 1 : ---------- They are soaking in it. Children playing in it. There are poisons in the park. Eating dirt and crunching doodlebugs, off of mother nature's earthly rugs. They are soaking in it. Lovers floating in it. There are poisons in the park. Floating languidly in lover's arms, Sneeches playing with their stars on thars. and the park, is it lying in wait ? CHORUS 1 : ---------- Mommy look the bees they are flyyyyy-ing Daddy why the trees they are dyyyyy-ing Do I hear the birds, are they cryyyyy-ing and the park, is it lying in wait ? VERSE 2 : ---------- Roots entwined in rotten tires. Green blades of jaded grass, poison jagged daggered spires, When your bathing in the su-mmer time. Are you and Plato sipping hemlock wine ? Has the park become the beast ? it's many joys - totally defiled. Is this repercussion our design ? Are we drumming up our own decline ? and the park, it is lying in wait. CHORUS 2 : ---------- Mommy look the bees they NOT flyyyyy-ing Daddy why the trees they are dyyyyy-ing Do I hear the birds, are they are cryyyyy-ing and the park, it is lying in wait. VERSE 3 : ---------- City leaders in complete denial. Spending millions to office for you and I. Was the salamander's moss disturbed ? Did we curse them with the poisoned earth ? You are soaking in it, you are floating in it. In the news they talk about. When they met at Barton Creek to make, the laws to regulate the buried waste, Did they ever really stop to think, they'd build the parks atop the rubbish heaps ? And the park it is lying in state. Reprise Hooks Out : ------------------- We are soaking in it. Lovers floating in it. There are poisons in the park. Have they fleeced the flock of floating sheep ? Our children wading in this shit knee deep ? And the park it is lying in wait. And the park it is lying in state. And the park ... it is lying ... in wait.
