That's right, folks, they're blowin' up the Champlain Bridge. Original Song by Speedy Arnold from Keeseville, NY with a little help from his friends...very little. Accompanied by vocals: Gus Ayers, Tanner Knight, Alice Knight; Videogropher: Alison Arnold
THEY'RE BLOWIN' UP THE CHAMPLAIN BRIDGE
Oh they're blowin' up the Champlain bridge
Get the camera and the car and round
up all the kids,
Call the neighbors get a cooler and
some beers from the fridge
And well go down to Bulwagga,
Watch the bridge fall in the water
As they blow up the Champlain bridge
Oh they say it aint safe anymore
Yeah the state spent all our money on
stuff they shouldn't a spent it for
All the pilings are all rotten
Simple maintenance was forgotten
Ineptitude from shore to shore (for sure)
Oh theyre blowin up....
Tell me why can't they build stuff that doesn't break?
Oh I know why. IT'S VERMONT & IT'S ALSO NEW YORK STATE
Gee, lets not try to fix it
Should-a built it out a sticks, it
Soon will be at the bottom of the lake!
Oh, theyre blowin' up the Champlain bridge
Get the camera and the car and round up all the kids,
Call the neighbors get a cooler and some
beers from the fridge.
Oh the bridge is so corroded
And the budget is so bloated
All objections have been noted
A new design was even voted
Now the charges are all loaded
And the bridge will soon be sploded
'Cause they're blowin' up the Champlain bridge!!
