Story behind the song
It's called "the dead swans", based on a poem written by Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings of Greenbridge, Essex, England.
The poem's also known as "The Most Awful Poetry in the Galaxy" was (before the destruction of the Earth). Words are deriving from the "Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" TV series which was filmed by the BBC in 1981.
The picture is showing a swan which died of lead and other toxic metals in it's environment...
Lyrics
The dead swans lay in the stagnent pool.
They lay. They rotted. They turned
Around occassionally.
Bits of flesh dropped off them from
Time to time.
And sank into the pool's mire.
They also smelt a great deal.
