The Savannah River Project has come to our town
Taking soil samples and a-digging around
They found a heaping helping of deuterium
Which really comes in handy when you’re building a bum
They told us they were gonna have to buy our land
My neighbors and I tried to make one last stand
We wouldn’t sell but they cried “Eminent Domain!”
And life as we knew it would never be the same
Got a Bum Plant, Got a Bum Plant
Oh, Let’s give three cheers for the Bum Plant (Rah! Rah! Rah!)
Goodbye dear Ellenton, Farewell Dunbarton
It was swell, It was great
DISPLACED TOWNSPERSON: There goes my house! WAIT!!!
SRP MAN: Think of the jobs it’ll bring
CHORUS: Someone draw the water, Really HEAVY water, Ah-Oh
SRP MAN: Think of the economic boom
DISPLACED TOWNPERSON: Did he say BOOM?!!!
CHORUS: Someone test the water, Hot and steamy water
SOLO: I got a funny story ‘bout my brother Dwight
He was going hunting on a very dark night
Dwight was always lucky in this neck of the wood
Had some common knowledge that he understood
You see ‘round these parts you don’t even need a light
The deer is always glowing both day and night
He mounted the buck on his living room wall
And now he doesn’t even need a nightlight at all
CHORUS: Got a Bum Plant, Got a Bum Plant
Oh, Let’s give three cheers for the Bum Plant (Rah! Rah! Rah!)
Goodbye dear Ellenton, Farewell Dunbarton
It was swell, It was great
Always will we celebrate
Flying frogs, three eyed cows
Never have we been so proud
Of the Bum Plant, Oh the Bum Plant
We got lots to thank for the Bum Plant
It helped America stay a little safer
Too bad dear Ellenton, Tough luck Dunbarton
The Bum Plant’s just more
DISPLACED TOWNSPEOPLE: BUM! BUM! BUM! BUM!
CHORUS: Fun
