[Verse 1]
Thirty-six miles of shitwater pipe
One-Twenty-Four inches, buried deep
Pumped uphill using parasitic power
Megawatts spent just to transport effluent
Piss to steam, flush to fission
Lifted against gravity and heat
Phoenix calls it a “closed-loop vision”
Day after day against the grade

[Verse 2]
Seventy million gallons a day
Needed for the condenser stage
Cooling towers in triple-digit hell
Fed straight from municipality drains
Lined lagoons where the brine gets baked
Too toxic for lawns, fine for reclaimed
Piped on through the desert rock
Sourced directly from toilet stock

[Bridge]
They call it responsible, zero discharge
But nothing comes back once it’s gone
Vaporized, no return path
Then rename loss as conservation

[Chorus]
Nuclear Municipal
WASTEWATER 
COOLING
Nuclear Municipal 
WASTEWATER 
COOLING

[Verse 3]
Reuse until exhaustion hits
Twenty-five cycles, then it quits
Brine to ponds, vapor gone
Evaporated into dry air
Single-direction system
End of loop

[Bridge]
Millions spent to pump and treat
So the plant can stay elite
If the city doesn't send its bucket of piss, 
turbines will routinely self-trip.
A flush dependent enterprise

[Chorus]
Nuclear Municipal 
WASTEWATER! 
COOLING
Nuclear Municipal 
WASTEWATER 
(shit water)
COOLING

[Outro]
Arizona no once-through cooling capability
So flush for fission
Palo Verde desert king
Cooled by flushing the American dream
So
Flush
Flush
Flush it again
(....yeah you sick bastard)
