lyrics

Horror Winds
© 2022 Jack Curtis Dubowsky / De Stijl Music (BMI)

I’m just kind of relaxing on my porch, enjoying my pension, living in the woods.
I like the clean mountain breeze. The city air became too smoggy to breathe:
Local factories buying carbon credits to continue spouting filth.
No matter what law passed, it devolved into a financial scheme,
moving chips around the board, while the air got worse and worse.
I’m very concerned about the environment. Especially the air.
I have a very good sense of smell.

I don’t know why, but today, something doesn’t smell right.
Even up here in the mountains. What is that smell?
It's like sulfur and ash and chemicals, ammonia,
Acrid things I cannot identify. No, no, it's some kind of fire.
But not a wood fire.

I look on Twitter. I check the radio. Nothing.
Frustrated, I call the fire department. Nothing. There is no fire.
But I smell it, stronger and stronger.
Until I recognize that smell. I know that smell.

This is the burn pit I exposed all those men to.
We burned 147 tons of toxic waste a day.
Thousands of men reported sick.
I just made referrals and put them back to work.
What was I supposed to do. We had to keep the pits burning.
Sure, I was in command, but those were orders from above.

But the burn pit cannot be here in the mountains.
The burn pit is all in my mind. But I smell it.
I hope it goes away. I don’t want to be haunted by this smell.
