Ghosts of Fort Detrick
by Eric Westbrook and Steve Chambers
Verse:
It was nineteen hundred and fifty-eight
Installing the Detrick wires
I was workin' near the testing sphere
Electrician there for hire
Bacillus anthracis
Is the name that they give
Inhale it in your lungs, forget it son
You ain't got but three days to live
Chorus:
For our country we had to die
Governments lie, and you don't ask why
Don't know much about biology
Its history in the home of the free
Verse:
Nixon shut down the anthrax hotel
But the deadly fruits still linger
Brentwood victims of a madman's rage
White dust on the trigger finger
Bridge:
They say that fallen heroes
Make this country great
The unsung ones who had to die young
From a biohazard fate
Fort Detrick, Fort Detrick
The ghosts of your past
Haunt these buildings and roads and lakes
As long as these poisons last, as long as they last
Verse:
Now Curseen, Morris, and Boyles are laid to rest
And I'm locked inside of the containment room
But here we plan to make a stand
Til the truth cuts through this gloom
Chorus:
For our country we had to die
Governments lie, and you don't ask why
Make sure you know about biology
Its your history in the home of the free
