Black Death Lies

Recalling the days not so far away, Hearing experts speaking to say, We had not enough oil today. There was not five million to sway. No, no, we had not enough oil here. We depend on foreign oil so clear. What do I see plastered in the news. Millions and millions per day we lose. What, we did not have is ruining, life. Millions of dollars spent in strife. Sea life, peoples lives in peril. By what we did not have by the barrel, Now we know; we were lied too, big. Black Death, we had not, flows from rig.
