The Lyrics

About the scam, perpetrated mainly on the Web, of selling colloidal silver, a cumulative poison, as cure-all for certain ailments. Heavy use of this poison can turn the skin gray. Chelation is a process of removing heavy metals from the bloodstream.
Silver cells, silver cells,
They have now reached toxicity.
Folks showin' silver skin--
Eventually turns gray.

Silver sites hawk their silver crocks,
Pseudomedical style.
On the air,
At least, these scams are missing.

Scammers laughing
As they're banking
The suckers' money piles.
Victims should hope there's chelation near.

Silver cells, silver cells,
They have now reached toxicity.
Folks showin' silver skin--
Eventually turns gray.

String-'em'on sites
Can't stop the blight.
This racket is obscene.
Scumbags plundering gullibles' treasure.

There's a free lunch
For this scam bunch
As they pick pockets clean.
It's nothing but a hustle,
That's clear.

Silver sells, silver sells,
Though it imparts toxicity.
Folks showin' silver skin--
Eventually turns gray.

The subject sailed over my head so it wouldn't be prudent to punish YOUR ratings for MY ignorance. I can tell this is a nice job with pacing and all, just pay more attention to where the accents are in the original lyrics. For songs with shorter lines, not paying attention to which syllables of the original are accented can make the song sound awkward in places.
