Oil Volcano Against a Gulf

An oil rig is burning up
Mourning for eleven dead
Beaches blackened with tar
From drowning birds
To shattering lives
Oil volcano against a gulf
A pipe that still gushes
It is too late for blame
It may just never be fixed
From failed attempt
After foot-in-mouth
We need more than prayers
The fisherman lose lives
They skim oil instead of
Our 3rd coast is in peril!
Still pipes pollute
Robots can not help
A disgusting mess this big
We should sustain within
At very least geothermal
Farm solar instead of corn
As Germany is doing
Fueling off our own
Equally paying our farmers
America can not afford
To go on wasting a day
If we boycott, we will pay
Pump price going up
We see what they do
BP might raise them anyway
