Harrisburg
The empire rings
The umpire's not laughing
The President's resented, ambassador's a nightclub
You cannot get it out
It's stuff you cannot taste or see
It's stuff you cannot smell
It's stuff that's 20 times as hot
As the hottest stuff in hell
Harrisburg, oh, Harrisburg, the plant is melting down
The people out in Harrisburg are getting out of town
And when this stuff gets in
You cannot get it out
The company said it would not blow
The government said it might
Harrisburg, oh, Harrisburg
I wonder who is right
Who can leave it behind?
The curtains are drawn
There's something I must say to you
You cannot get it out
Harrisburg, oh, Harrisburg, the plant is melting down
The people out in Harrisburg are getting out of town
And when this stuff gets in
You cannot get it out
'Cause when this stuff gets in
You cannot get it out
The umpire's not laughing
The President's resented, ambassador's a nightclub
You cannot get it out
It's stuff you cannot taste or see
It's stuff you cannot smell
It's stuff that's 20 times as hot
As the hottest stuff in hell
Harrisburg, oh, Harrisburg, the plant is melting down
The people out in Harrisburg are getting out of town
And when this stuff gets in
You cannot get it out
The company said it would not blow
The government said it might
Harrisburg, oh, Harrisburg
I wonder who is right
Who can leave it behind?
The curtains are drawn
There's something I must say to you
You cannot get it out
Harrisburg, oh, Harrisburg, the plant is melting down
The people out in Harrisburg are getting out of town
And when this stuff gets in
You cannot get it out
'Cause when this stuff gets in
You cannot get it out
