What a Gas!
prices goin' up,
prices goin' down;
quit playin' with our pockets,
we're wearin' a funky frown!
every time the prices drop,
our hopes are ridin' high;
just when we think the price is right,
you "sock" us in the eye!
you sit around in fancy suits,
rich as hell and greedy;
you suck us dry like a fat mosquito,
rippin' off the poor and needy!
let us gather our whippin' sticks,
without negotiation;
we'll beat 'em all in a public square,
for crimes against our nation!
