Where Greenland Used To Be

A parody response to the NRC's statement not to worry about tritium leaks from Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant because it was 'just a little bit'.
The children go to school in Guilford, Vermont
To study science, math, and English lit
The children go to school in Guilford, Vermont with
A little bit of trit,
with a little bit of trit,
with a little bit of tritium..

Just a little bit,
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit of trit with English lit
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit of tritium

The bass and trout are swimming in the river
If you eat one, you know what you will get
The bass and trout are swimming in the river with
A little bit of trit,
with a little bit of trit,
with a little bit of tritium

Just a little bit,
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit of trit is what you get
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit,
just a little bit of tritium

The NRC says not to worry,
it's just a little bit of trit, that’s all you get.

Yankee has strontium in their soil.
Yankee has strontium in the air
Now Yankee has strontium in the water with
A little bit of trit,
with a little bit of trit,
with a little bit of tritium

Just a little bit,
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit of trit with strontium
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit,
just a little bit of tritium

The NRC says not to worry,
it's just a little bit of trit, and nothing else.

We could have wave, & wind, & solar power
Instead of radioactivity
We could have wave, & wind, & solar power, NOT
A little bit of trit,
not a little bit of trit,
not a little bit of tritium

Just a little bit,
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit of trit with English Lit
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit,
just a little bit of tritium.
