Alice Bag – Poisoned Seed lyrics

[Intro]
There was a time this land could yield a fruitful bounty
And amber waves of grain could inspire a song
But the winds of change have blown
And things have gone terribly wrong

[Verse 1]
Dust from his hands scattered on the land
He had the harvest carefully planned

[Chorus]
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)

[Verse 2]
Flyin' on the breeze, spreadin' the disease
He's gonna squeeze 'em til they bleed

[Chorus]
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)
I’m not gonna water the poisoned seed
I'd rather be up to my neck in weeds

[Verse 3]
Oh yeah those heirlooms were like gems
But now it’s coming to an end

[Chorus]
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)

[Verse 4]
Yeah we were blind, trusted in the science
Planted the crop and fell in line

[Chorus]
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)
I’m not gonna water (the poisoned seed)

[Outro]
I'd rather be to my neck in weeds
I’m not gonna water the poisoned seed
