Lake Michigan Lyrics by The Broadways

Broken Van

1997

Let's go down to the lake and take a swim in toxic waste
I dive in, the buildings soar so high I cannot see the sky
There's something strange about this big city
I think I could do without this big city life
I'll move to the mountains
And build my own log cabin
And enjoy being alone all by myself
Instead of feeling lonely on this crowded train downtown
Perhaps it was the industrial revolution that
Led the way to this pollution of our planet
And then the evolution of technology
Perhaps it couldn't have been avoided
And the paradox of technology
Is that it may save what we've destroyed
But who really cares about having cleaner air?
Factories roar every day and pollute the air away
And what about the landfills and the toxic waste
Bringing disease to our children, water and land?
When I ride the train, sometimes I get a stare
Rarely do I get a smile
People are so concerned with their identity
No one cares enough to talk as human beings
But how can we find a solution
Without communication?
If it's become too late
For our generation
Let's go down to the lake and take a swim in our mistakes
