Arctic and Greenpeace

The courage of the Greenpeace crew
surpasses gas and oil
Exxon mobile enjoy the thrill
but it makes my blood boil
so selfish so uncaring
its oil and risks they say
are really not as important
once it all gets underway
under threat of lethal force
Greenpeace showed the way
The Russian coastguard threatens
and makes it clear today
Russia supports the exploration
of this world resource
the kara Sea and all who be
are threatened with lethal force
so Greenpeace heads out of the area
having exposed it all
in a climate now of certainty
that disaster may befall
us all in this far environment
whose climate is severe
the slightest leak would ruin
everything now around here
we hold our breath
now waiting
for the news that spreads it far
that leaks are now occurring
and forever they will scar
this pristine place packed full
of beautiful creatures still so rare
its because oil’s more important
than anything else there
