The Three
Stooges
and BP Oil
Trussed us all up
For their dance
The three
Stooges
Pratfall with BP
Eye gouge with
Right wing rants.
Once they told us
Long ago
They were going green
You know
Now they changed their mind
It seems
Not a money-making scheme
The Three
Stooges
Drilled a hole too deep there
And now they all say:
‘Oooops!’
2) The Three
Stooges
Fiddling with
Our ocean
They screwed it up
Noody checked
On their credentials
It’s too late now
They’ve had other toxic sites
In Alaska what a blight
Gulls and seals, lying dead
“It is not our fault,” they said
The Three Stooges
Understand the pratfall:
“For this blame SOMEONE ELSE!”
3) The 3
Stooges
Larry, Moe
and Curley,
Known here by
Different names
Haliburton, Transocean & BP
We know they’re
All the same
“Oh it’s not our fault,”
They cry.
“We were just there,
standing by,
When somebody drilled a hole,
Who it was we still don’t know -”
The 3 Stooges
Larry, Moe and Curley
Show us their oil dance.
