Split State
\noh! yea
\na piece of legal jargon
\ndo you own land
\naround a bouts
\nyou bought it at a bargain
\nwell now Big Oil is on
\nthe war path
\nlooking for a way
\nof grabbing anything they can
\nfrom you and you will pay
\nits clear you own the surface land
\nbut they have the mineral rights
\nyou may have built your dream home there
\nthats when their big dog bites
\nSplit state rolls in
\nlawyers have stitched you up
\nand you
\nwill witness drilling on your land
\nYes its fracking true
\nwithin 200 feet or so
\na huge great rig will climb
\ninto the sky
\ndid you wonder why?
\nso as to apply
\ntheir know how
\nand their fracking fluids
\nand a whole lot more
\ncreate a pad
\nyour already sad
\nand you will be for evermore
\nyour investment out the window
\nthe environment is too
\nlies, oh they had many
\nand soon what they will do
\nwhen fracking water reaches
\nthe aquifers
\nyou’ll see
\nmethane mixed with water
\nlight that and you’ll be
\nsuprised to see a puff of smoke
\nthe gas of course ignites
\nyour waters not for drinking
\nits one of Big oil frights<\/p>\n
Down into marcellus shale
\nthe bit between their teeth
\nin a great vast sea of nasties
\nwho will lay a wreath
\non your home on your farmland
\non your lake
\nnot BIG Oil
\nthey will show 2 fingers
\nand your blood it will boil<\/p>\n
frustration it will surface
\nbut there’s nothing you can do
\nonce you let them frack the land
\nthe fracking waters spew
\nall over, and they turn their backs
\nand you can take the blame
\nyou can face the misery
\nyou can stake your claim<\/p>\n
But insurers they will tell you
\nsorry chum the law
\nprecludes BIG OIL at every stage
\nand they just shut the door
\nmethane and formaldehyde
\nsquirts out of the ground
\nin this vile and evil ooze
\nwhere oil men some expound
\nthe reasons for the fracking
\nNatural Gas and they
\ncan snub their noses to the Russians
\nfor now they don’t have to pay<\/p>\n
but its getting in the water
\nits getting in the air
\nits getting in your foodstuffs
\ndon’t you bloody care
\nthe animals are suffering
\nthe fish lay on their side
\nthe reptiles Goddess their gasping
\nthere is no where to hide
\nyour children will be coughing
\nheadache nosebleeds too
\nwe’re poisoning our countryside
\nwith this obnoxious stew<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
