Lyrics:
TSB POPPIN' LEAD WE STOPPIN'
BY TOXIC SOIL BUSTERS
[chorus:]
TSB poppin
and lead we stoppin
TSB poppin
and lead we stoppin
TSB poppin
and lead we stoppin
We plantin on these suckas gettin poisoneds not an option
[BRIDGE 1:]
Remove it, Remove it, Remove it,
What you waitin for!? [x4]
[chorus]
Remove it to the maximum
Worcester Roots comin through
with the TSB crew
springin into action
at your service to test some lead for you
a lot lead in main south yeah its true
Government ain’t cleaned it up
Ain’t nothin new
Not only do we test
but we bring justice too
So we brush off our shoulders and wipe off our shoe
tryin to bring lead safe soil to a yard near you
lead in the soil is a very dangerous issue
but if you aint got money
the Government will just diss you
TSB is a co-op
We tryin to make it official
Not just tryin to get gwap
its about the environmental
lead can affect your brain
damage your mental
the government don’t care
all they wanna do is embezzle
but we here to let them know the community aint gonna settle
[BRIDGE 1]
