As if they had been warned by either radio or sonar
About the Gasquet Waterman's filter plans
The poisons turned the river a milky orange
And several groups of steelhead were seen protesting
Holding signs that made no sense
Except maybe to other fish
The locals who depended upon the river's water
Found out Waterman's wife had warned the riverbugs
They had seen her laboratory and could picture her with wires
Building either a radio or sonar while quietly singing "The Riverbug Song"
Riverbug Song
I build these devices
To warn you of a plan
To filter you out of existence
According to the Waterman
He thinks he will be doing good
He sees you as a blight
So I must warn you, riverbugs
To make an even fight
Riverbugs release your toxins
Take your river back
You must coordinate and organize
And plan out your attack
The Waterman felt betrayed at first
Upon learning who warned the bugs
His wife explained that his filter plans
Were shortsighted and ecologically flawed
The Gasquet Waterman swallowed his pride
And admitted his filter plan was potentially dangerous
So he used her radio or sonar to contact the riverbugs
To tell them there would be no filter
And asked them to stop releasing their toxins
The milky orange water eventually cleared
And the steelhead stopped their protest
The locals were happy once again
That the riverbugs had foiled the Gasquet Waterman's filter plan
