Like A Bad Movie
(Oils Well That Ends Well~Not) *
My goodness British Petroleum, again look what you've done
This one's a bit of a sticky wicket and we see it as a bad one
Not to worry they conjured; we'll just down play the incident
We'll leave it in the hand's of our own dear Mr. President

But Obama and friends seem to be out golfing in the sun
Putt Putt Putt, Tsk Tsk, let him have his fun
He'll just send in the army and use more tax payers money
But not hire the fisherman now out of work; now ain't that funny?

No matter as Tony Hayward now has now lost his current job
He's out sailing in a race on his 52 foot yacht named Bob

100,000 barrels or even more each day and BP needs to pay
Victim's put your claims in now; prepare to fight until your dying day

Cutting corners to save a buck equals costs and liabilities
As well our hearts bleed in horror for all the animal tragedies
Gross negligence, falsehoods and still the numbers get even worse

They burn it into our atmosphere and now destroy our air
That seems much like the broom sweeping it all under the rug
More like the political actions of a common street thug
*
Tars balls ruining Florida's' 60 billion tourist industry
All the wildlife that will be lost is nothing but a tragedy
It's really quite simple and I've blogged a fix to tap this raging hell
Not getting back to me only indicates that like them, I'm an idiot as well

Poetry: Like a bad movie

Never as bad as it sounded
when the words left your mouth.
Never as bad as we first

Like a bad movie
The world
Goes crazy
Now and then
Nailing
The loving life
Into a coffin
For children
Of the world
To run

My goodness British Petroleum, again look what you've done
This one's
Like a bad movie...
Yet it is real...
While I'd like to blame it on just a bad review,
It simply is true,
Like a bad movie...

I wake up everyday, just the same, I don't see any point
I have lived this day before
I wake up everyday, just the same, I
