“Smart Meters will come to you soon,” said my utility.
“You’ll learn and save, and so much more
With this technology.
Join in the trend, we’ll save the earth,
And conserve electricity.
Life will be grand and bold and new.
Smart Meters will set you free.”
Such rubbish! These Smart Meters full of hype,
Forced on you and me,
Invading our homes and neighborhoods and our towns,
What will our future be?
All the problems they can cause to us and our families.
These big bad meters are not wise,
And they’re not alright by me.
They fail to mention bills go up,
And there’s hackability.
Increase your risk for burglary,
And there’s no more privacy.
Your pacemaker might malfunction,
Or your appliances, you’ll see.
And they can shut your power off remotely if they please.
Do you really want Smart Meters anywhere
Pulsing powerfully.
Such problems and false promises given us
Typical boondoggle scheme.
I call on our state capitols to show some backbone please.
Repeal this program right away.
Let’s be Smart Meter-free.
These meters pulse their microwaves at every living thing.
All day and night they’re damaging our bodies, brains, and genes.
All the harm that they can do,
Affecting even bees.
It scares me stiff and makes me mad,
I’m hoping you’ll help me.
Get rid of these Smart Meters
Everywhere
Tell it to the PUC.
Get rid of these Smart Meters everyone,
Take ‘em back, utilities.
Try to cram them down our throats and on communities,
We’ll show you who still is the boss.
In America, we’ll be free.
Get rid of these Smart Meters everywhere,
Forced on you and me.
Invading our homes and neighborhoods and our towns,
What would our future be?
All the harm that they can do to our communities.
Smart ain’t so great.
Wise is the prize,
So please won’t you join me?
Smart ain’t so great.
Wise is the prize,
So please won’t you join me?
