Cloud Color & Groove Temple - There's a Monster in the Gowanus!

The next big conspiracy is in the canal right off Smith Street
Brooklyn, NYC
Last place you'd expect a mystery
Below the chemical film
In the cancer-causing goo
Is a cryptid that will consume you
A slimy octopod that occupies a body of water so vile
It's a superfund site
Sludgy brown with 12 green eyes
Low oxygen makes it hard to survive
Only one could possibly thrive
There's a monster in the Gowanus
A creature in the canal
Lurking in the deadly pathogens
The monster can be found
There's a monster in the Gowanus
A creature in the canal
In the pollution all around
The monster can be found
Look at the news past the foul fumes
People making moves
Luxury condos with expensive views
Beyond the swill pond
And bacteria unidentified
Construction of a new skyline
The kraken's cousin still waits to be heard
From the depths where it lurks
The water that once caught fire
After rain raw sewage would rise
Only one could possibly thrive
There's a monster in the Gowanus
A creature in the canal
Lurking in the deadly pathogens
The monster can be found
There's a monster in the Gowanus
A creature in the canal
In the pollution all around
The monster can be found
