With Christmas around the corner
\nAnd a new year coming fast
\nThe corporate enforcement role
\nOf the police
\nThat die is cast<\/p>\n
We witness that involvement
\nAs the corporate giants come
\nInto our communities
\nAnd imagine we are dumb<\/p>\n
Or daft or lost for words
\nA few though see the light
\nMessengers and angels
\nWitnessing the blight<\/p>\n
Able via social media
\nTo concentrate and see
\nWhat fracking has turned America
\nInto regrettably<\/p>\n
Australia is being torn
\nto smithereens as well
\nEnvironments are being lost
\nWhich throws up a ghastly smell<\/p>\n
As methane and frack fluids
\nand the big machine
\nHydraulic fracturing buggers up
\nThe earth that once was green<\/p>\n
Water is already at a premium
\nBut we
\nSee upwards of 8 millions gallons
\nPumped, eternity
\nWill not be long at this rate
\nFor animals or man
\nWasting and polluting fast
\nJust because they can<\/p>\n
The air we breathe polluted too
\nIts about energy
\nThe vampires we call corporations
\nSucking violently<\/p>\n
Getting to the politicians
\nWho seemingly don’t care
\nIn it to make their fast bucks
\nBut totally unaware<\/p>\n
Of commonsense and family
\nIts not until they see
\nAnd feel the repercussions
\nOf their own insanity<\/p>\n
The UK will be torn apart
\nAcidification rules
\nFracking is attacking
\nOur vitality, which calls<\/p>\n
These oligarchs into process
\nWizards of the dark
\nWhose only want is oil and gas
\nAnd its there they make their mark<\/p>\n
And we are seen as superfluous
\nThey really do not care
\nWhere we live and how we live
\nThey just dont want to share<\/p>\n
They have their private islands
\nTheir mansions in the sky
\nAnd As for us thats you and me
\nThey dont care if we die<\/p>\n
And as for the protectors
\nThe police are paid to be
\nOut there getting heavy
\nMaking the mice see<\/p>\n
If you come and protest
\nAnd build camps you will get
\nAggression like you cant imagine
\nAnd fines that will not let<\/p>\n
You get involved with energy
\nSpecial camps for you
\nLocked up 24 hours a day
\nAnd beaten black and blue<\/p>\n
Security in private hands
\nWe see it already they
\nAre mindless groups of idiots
\nWho do anything for pay<\/p>\n
Pumped up little hitlers
\nGiven a yellow coat
\nAnd labelled private security
\nSo, someone of note<\/p>\n
Louts and thugs
\nAnd mindless fools
\nBrainwashed endlessly
\nEmployed to show the public
\nWhat happens actually
\nWhen they protest
\nOr answer back
\nThey will meet improbity<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
