Lietoofine - The Area Still Smelled of Molasses

This is about the great molasses flood
Occurred in the north end neighbourhood
Of Boston
On January fifteen nineteen nineteen
A large storage tank filled with tons of molasses
Burst
And the resultant wave rushed through the streets
Killing twenty one and injuring one hundred fifty
The event entered the local folklore
And residents claimed for decades
Afterwards
That the area still smelled
Of molasses
On hot summer days
