Gulf of Mexico Lament 06/08/10

Look what we’re doing to the earth, air, and seas?
Filling them with poison, garbage, and junk.
Watching the news has put me in a funk.
Tragedies pile on, bringing me to my knees.

We have been fouling them by degrees.
And now, it appears, we are all sunk.
Look what we’re doing to the earth, air, and seas?
Filling them with poison, garbage, and junk.

Now is the time--the time we must sieze.
The misinformation we need to debunk.
The Kool-aid we’re given must not be drunk.
To our planet we must no longer be like a disease.
Look what we’re doing to the earth, air, and seas?
