Tar Sands Cancers
(From the dirtiest gasolines)

Ban bottled water from the menus of tar sands execs.
Let them be subjected to their tar sands carcinogens.
How long will they continue to fill their waste ponds with poisons?
How long till they put in for a transfer to safer environs?

As they are consumed by the carcinogens they store,
Let's see how many are willing to store a lot more
In their leaking tailing ponds that blanket so many square miles,
Destroying Alberta's wetlands as well as its wilds.

How great this is all happening in Canada and not in the U.S.
We've our own special problems. It's the United States Congress.
They're also blind to the dangers bitumrn creates
in the mining, refinig and driver death rates.

The dirtiest fuel will claim millions of victims.
If we can't get Monsanto to label the GMOs that we eat,
What are the chances Exxon, BP and Shell will tell
Us which gasolines will endanger our loved ones in the passenger seat?
