Poem
Leaked excerpts from the journal of a disgruntled federal, civil servant employee. These views and opinions are not shared by the Environmental Protection Agency. These excerpts were made public by an anonymous source. My knightly mission is to protect the air you breath, keep you safe from all harm environmentally But the new king, who was just sworn in, said an endangered earth ain't nothing but liberal spin He's gonna have those fracking machines dig even deeper into the ground Inject more and more waste water underneath He said too much regulating ain't economically sound, big business will get the economy back on it's feet The king vowed they're gonna hit paydirt, there's lots of oil soon to be found Pump the profits up by putting more poison in the ground And the crops just cried a little more because I couldn't unsheathed my sword King put a muzzle on me and my scientific horsemen, round tabled us with a work order freeze There's a flash flood coming, a quake just around the bend ... the earth's gonna open up and swallow us all in Lord, please forgive us for our sins Flash freeze ... if they don't stop, Ice Age soon to begin, and we didn't care to know we brought it on ourselves Custodians of the planet just got laid off, as the mockers continue to scoff Wonder what they're gonna think when the land begins to stink Vomiting oil all over the tainted soil Flash freeze ... no more hiring Help won't be on the way, but this old knight will continue to pray that our children will live to see a green day
