Obama's Gulf War –
British Petroleum's Driller Killers
Buying off the Drill Baby Drillers

How many more wells have they drilled on the cheap?
What will we do when that oil starts to seep
Into the Gulf and onto our shores,
While Obama's in bed with Oil Mafia whores?

Can't they see the need for booms twenty-four seven
As safety insurance in case of a leak?
If they had been ready as part of a plan,
Brown pelicans might still be here as we speak.

But BP's too cheap! No booms, no containment
Tankers to save the Gulf, sucking up oil.
Rapid response can be ever so costly.
'Twas cheaper to wait till things came to a boil.

If Tony Hayward had OK'd the cost,
Eleven rig workers might not have been lost.
Why not drown a few if while you're doing so
Your company doesn't feel threatened by RICO?

Their plan is to buy off those Drill Baby Drillers
Who might be upset that their drillers are killers,
Who've killed before and are killing again,
Who've murdered employees and the brown pelican.
