Pollution

POLLUTION by TOM LEHRER

Watch the video bellow and try to catch the missing words.

I hope you will understand Tom's introduction to the song.

If you visit American city
You will find it very ..............
Just two things of which you must beware
Don't drink the water and don't ............. the air

Pollution, pollution
They got smog and sewage and mud
Turn on your tap
And get hot and cold running crud

See the halibuts and the sturgeons
.......... wiped out by detergents
Fish gotta swim and birds gotta fly
But they don't last .......... if they try

Pollution, pollution
You can use the latest ............
And then rinse your mouth
With............waste

Just go out for a breath of air
And you'll be ready for Medicare
The city ............ are really quite a thrill
If the hoods don't get you, the monoxide will

Pollution, pollution
Wear a gas ........... and a veil
Then you can breathe
Long as you don't .........

Lots of things there that you can drink
But stay away from the kitchen ...........
Throw out your breakfast garbage and I‘ve got a hunch
that the folks ................... will drink it for lunch

So go to the city
See the crazy ............. there
Like .......... to the slaughter
They're drinking the water
And breathing, cough, the air
