TAR SANDS From Alberta to Stroud with love

Having plans in place.for the catastophe
They said it wouldnt happen but it does
Remember all the problems with the pipeliness
Through America
DAPL Had that enormous buzz
That saw the government pit itself
Against veterans, locals and the indigenous tribes
They knew
Having been on earth much longer than
The rest of us
Lets just say they know how others screw

Us over with their lies just to make money
Anywhere it can happen as we all know
Deep down in our guts but we just frankly
Well forget it
And hope in hell the threat just doesn’t grow
So now today the tar sands oil from Alberta
Was on its way like many times before
This time there is flooding and trains
Are not that good
At dealing with disasters possibly it would
Have been better just to stop a while
But money is the key
Keep them frieght cars moving
Thats how it has to be

So we do have adverse circumstances
And a moving train
Storm clouds in the offing
All in all a pain
For those who have to move the oil
Get in into Stroud
Calamity catastrophe
No one is endowed
With seeing what will happen
Before it happens so
32 freight cars left the track
And where did the oil go

Into the flood waters
25,000 gallons per car
It happened in DOON
Feels more like DOOM
In Lyon County
It will scar
The environment for certain
The little rock river
Was running wild
An ill fated luckless journey
Must now be reconciled

Whats happening down river
A lot it feels to me
Conoco Phillips are clearly
Stressed
All this adversity
Its a massive problem
And once again we see
When dealing with such wretched oil
There is no guarantee
