Tom Paxton - All Clear in Harrisburg

The Paxton Report 1980


Lyrics:
You may come back to your homes now citizens.
You may come back to the nest.
We had a little spot of trouble, it's true.
But things turned out for the best.

Yes a little radiation got loose,
And people ran for the bus.
And let me tell you if you live downwind,
You'll be hearing from us.

You may come back to your homes now citizens,
The town is perfectly clean.
And please believe us you have nothing to fear,
If now and then you turn green

3 Mile Island is a wonderful place,
And the future is now.
Oh by the way I wouldn't eat that egg,
Or drink the milk from that cow.

[Cho]
You just might glow in the dark,
Grow feathers like a lark,
Stand in the fountain and light up the park.
Have a nice day, The chances you may,
Blow yourself and half of Pennsylvania away.

You may relax in your homes now Harrisburg.
For sure the crisis is past.
Oh sure we may have a problem or two,
The next one might be the last.

Oh yes the wave of the future is here.
It's reassuring to know.
They'll be no need of a suntan next year,
For we'll be wearing our glow.

We just might glow in the dark,
Grow feathers like a lark,
Stand in the fountain and light up the park.
Have a nice day, The chances you may,
Blow yourself and half of Pennsylvania away.
