Just 30 miles from Detroit

Stands a giant power station

That ticks each night as the city sleeps

Just seconds from annihilation

But no one stops to think about the people

On how they would survive

And we almost lost Detroit this time

How would we ever get over losing our minds?

The Sheriff of Monroe County

Had (sho’ ’nuff) disasters on his mind

And what would Karen Silkwood say to you

If she was still alive?

That when it comes to people’s safety

Money wins out every time

And we almost lost Detroit this time

How would we ever get over losing our minds?
