Big Oil's 'A' Team?
(Fossil fuel defenders)

Who says fossil fuels are changing our climate?
Who claims that's impossible? BP wouldn't dare.
No way would they let a deep well explode.
Why would they cut corners and risk polluting our air?

A desire for more profits? They are a corporation.
Isn't that what they were created to do?
But what's with Joe Barton, that Republican from Texas?
Isn't his job to represent me and you?

But what is "Smokey Joe" Barton's main claim to fame,
Before he apologized for the way we went after BP?
Attempting to exempt cement plants from anti-smog regulations
In return for their donations of much dough re for me.

Five years later his ethics were questioned because of his investment
And conflict of interest in natural gas.
Intimidating letters "Smokey Joe" sent to climate change researchers
Were designed to protect British Petroleum and "Smokey Joe's" ass

Along with that of the Oil Mafia's whoremaster Vitter
And some of the world's most notorious pollution deniers.
Are these non-scientist idiots including Issa and Inhofe
The best Big Oil can find as fossil fuel glorifiers?
