Blastrodome 01:59
What to do with this old Astrodome? Hey, I know, let's have a vote Ask me in person, I'm so gung-ho But when I'm in the booth, the thing's gotta go It ain't no work of art, let's just rip it all apart BLAST BLASTRO BLASTRO BLASTRODOME It ain't makin' money I'm very sorry, honey No sense of history Blow it to smithereens And take me out to the BLASTING ZONE Disassembling the dome Scrape it and pave it for parking space I don't care if it's a slap in the face and we'll Root, root, root for Reliant And Matthew McConaughey, and we'll Hope the Astros don't suck quite so much Someday BLAST BLASTRO BLASTRO BLASTRODOME BLASTRO BLAST BLASTRO BLASTRO BLASTRODOME BLAST-RO-DOME It ain't makin' money I'm very sorry, honey No sense of history Blow it to smithereens

Nancy Grace 01:50
Blonde haired, beautiful, on the screen Just like Ann Coulter, you're loud and mean You talk about the stories that don't affect me Gotta boost the ratings for the corporate maching, 'cause Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) I hope you're having lots of fun You're angry because your husband was killed Now I'm the one who's footing the bill You blame anyone who doesn't think like you But I was not the one who set him free from you, because Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) I hope you're having lots of fun Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) Nancy Grace (you're a cunt) I hope you're having lots of fun Nancy Grace Nancy Grace Nancy Grace Nancy Grace

"My pickup truck has metal nuts that dangle as I go, I've got the stars and bars as stickers on my rear window, My bigotry is on my sleeve but I can do no wrong, my truck nuts keep me..." Mine eyes have seen the hatred Disguised under something called southern pride, Sore loser dog whistle strategies, Star spangled swastika bearers wink their eyes (say) Burn the confederate (burn the confederate) Burn the confederate (burn the confederate) Burn the confederate (burn the confederate) Burn the confederate flag You say that it's your heritage Your great great grand pappy fought and died, do you know How many forefathers you have? They probably fought each other on both sides, so Burn the confederate (burn the confederate) Burn the confederate (burn the confederate) Burn the confederate (burn the confederate) Burn the confederate flag "I've been indoctrinated into white supremacy I never will admit that I'm in favor of slav'ry How dare you say I'm racist, how can heritage be wrong? My truck nuts keep me strong" You lost get over it Burn the confederate flag

Dioxin Pit 03:28
All our lives they've said the bay was dirty Long before my time, I'm pushing thirty Forgotten toxic waste pits rediscovered Guilty parties come to light half a century later in court they fight I grew up in humble Highlands, Texas where the San Jacinto River bends There's a chain link fence with warning signs, saying you can't fish here any time This all went down when my dad was born Years pass and he would be working for'em Dioxin pit, dioxin pit Keep back no swimming and don't eat the fish Dioxin pit, dioxin pit They dump toxic waste and then hope we'll forget Corporate acquisitions blur the crime Dumping this was legal at the time The businessmen now they just want to fill it They say it's too expensive to remove it Names may change but the deed remains the same You buy the company, you buy the blame Dioxin pit, dioxin pit Keep back no swimming and don't eat the fish Dioxin pit, dioxin pit Our eyes are open we'll never forget Our eyes are open to dioxin pit

Sinners, in the hands of an angry mob You picket soldiers' funerals like it's your job Dead Drop dead Drop dead Fred (4x) Every member of your congregation Is connected to you through blood relation (brain-dead hicks) Dead Drop dead Drop dead Fred (4x) Fred Phelps Fred Phelps Westboro Baptist Church In all the USA there's nothing worse You beat your children and wife But before this song was finished you had already lost your life But I think there's another Fred Who believed every fucked up thing you said Dead Drop dead Drop dead Fred (4x)

Starve 01:45
Let's regulate charity Let's codify generosity Let's make it criminal To feed the hungry poor This slope may be slippery But it's all for "safety" Wait 'til Anise Parker Comes to your dinner party You don't have a permit for that! Starve; starve ; starve; starve them to death Some just want to feed the needy For the mayor that's just too easy If we make it just so hard They'll go elsewhere to starve She says no, no-no, no, no, no-no-no-no..... Let 'em starve to death Starve; starve ; starve; starve them to death

about

Chemical Alley Discharge is a tribute to Houston, for better or worse. Tracks like Starve, Dioxin Pit, and Blastrodome deal with social and environmental issues local to the area. Other tracks target particularly infamous individuals such as Nancy Grace, Ted Nugent, and Fred Phelps (junior or senior, take your pick). In the time it took you to read this description, you could have listened to half the album.
