Yucca Mountain Theme

A grand parade, a motorcade Our convoy of uranic waste Hauled through the streets of Henderson It's 90 miles to Yucca Mountain The flags are raised, the marshal waves The town's aglow, the marching band plays The passersby appear to cry Their words unheard, they're waving goodbye Welcome to Yucca Mountain A place for transuranic waste Let's bury all our problems So we don't ever have to face The toxic runoff of the human race Come down to Yucca Mountain This is what we are suited for 3,000 feet of peace of mind You need not worry anymore A marvel of geology A strict and strong containment policy We found when digging out this well The salt when struck rings just like a bell For the first 100 years Guards will keep all trespassers clear This problem's fixed, we're moving on We're handing off the nuclear baton Welcome to Yucca Mountain A place for transuranic waste Let's bury all our problems So we don't ever have to face The toxic runoff of the human race Come down to Yucca Mountain This is what we are suited for Three thousand feet of peace of mind You need not worry anymore Communicate with the future What we stored in the ground When Yucca Mountain cracks wide open We won't be around Welcome to Yucca Mountain A place for transuranic waste Let's bury all our problems So we don't ever have to face The toxic runoff of the human race Come down to Yucca Mountain This is what we are suited for Three thousand feet of peace of mind You need not worry anymore
