So you want me to drench a desert
Bad water is all I′ve got
You ask me to imbue the poorBad water is all I've got
So you want to perceive your life
Bad water is in your mind
Joy will never fill your heart
Red water turns into the tar
I am a cracked jar
Bad water′s running through my eyes
I leak, it burns
But still I can be refilled, it returns
It kills a seed, kills a breed
Smothers everything we need
Plugging our pores up
Flakes of salt drag to the start
Our lips are dry from constant cry
Our mouths are made of chalk and sand
If only we took one last sip
Backwater carried away for a final trip
The sky is a cracked jar
Bad water's running through the clouds
It leaks, it burns
But still I can be refilled, it returnes
Until we wash our feet in a creek
Till we spit in a cup and then drink
Till we curse upon the sea
Until the land can't shed a single tear
Bad water is all we will be
Bad, bad water
Bad, bad water
Bad, bad water
Bad water is all we can be
Bad, bad water
Bad, bad water
