[Lyric] Water Hammer (Brahms' Third Racket)

A pressure surge is building in the water main
It’s gonna blow and leave a giant crater in the street
People are gonna die and property will be destroyed
PR disaster front page news

Water hammer

We need to replace the aging infrastructure
Potholes ruining axles and sidewalks buckle
But no one wants to pay anymore in taxes
So corrosion will burn a hole in the public coffers

Water hammer
Water hammer

What will it take before we open our eyes?
How far can we go before the pipe explodes?

Water hammer
Water hammer
How many bridges have to collapse in an earthquake?
How many carcinogens can our bodies take?
