West Texas is now feeling
embarrassment and pain
30 towns are short of water
that will be a strain
largely they have been diverting
underground supplies
to feed those fracking frackers
and of course their fracking lies
pulling up the arsenic and the chemical
cocktail
thats plunging down into those drills
a real gruesome trail
clearly those few fat cats
are licking up their cream
whilst the rest of the community
learn to sort of dream
that once they had some water
but now the rate of waste
is humungous and quite soon
the water will run out the taste
will then just be a memory
arsenic and chemicals laced
what with droughts and climate change
and all this fracking waste
natural gas will cost a packet
it must now be faced
a few have made a killing
it happens all the time
its no stop gap solution
only a fool would chime
up with these excuses
the politician clan
who listen to the fat cat rants
as your town goes down the pan
listen to each other
and the activists and you
might just get out of this alive
otherwise they will screw
you and all those little towns
and your house prices will fall
dont believe the frackers
remember they are not cool
they are in it for what they can get
and you dont mean a thing
they pull the gas and frack off
its like a gigantic sting
