Who knew it was just a matter of time
'til we'd see such a crime
Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til the Bay died
Who knew it was just a matter of time
'til we'd see the canaries in the coal mine
Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til the Bay died

Crabs crawl from the water
Trying to escape their fate
Fish float on the surface
Tell me that it's getting late
Oxygen deprived and over fertilized
Don't the grass on the gulf course sure look green
I think you know what I mean

Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til we'd see such a crime
Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til the Bay died
Who knew it was just a matter of time
'til we'd see the canaries in the coal mine
Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til the Bay died

Who knew it was just a matter of time
'til we'd see the canaries in the coal mine
Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til the Bay died

Prehistoric, microscopic, lurking in the deep
Half plant half animal, fast asleep
A taste of PCB's
Or chicken farm run-off maybe
Either way it's now awake
And it's hungry

Who knew it was just a matter of time
'til we'd see such a crime
Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til the Bay died
Who knew it was just a matter of time
'til we'd see the canaries in the coal mine
Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til the Bay died

Pfiesteria, Pfiesteria, Pfiesteria, Psfiesteria
Pfiesteria, Pfiesteria, Pfiesteria, Pfiesteria

Who knew it was just a matter of time
'til we'd see such a crime
Who'da thought it was a matter of time
'til the Bay died
