BP's Got a Problem

The gulf has a big oil spill
that seems to be gushing at will.
The engineers dug it
and started to plug it,
but the oil is flowing out still.

Oh, what are we going to do?
Looks like BP will never come through.
They've dug and they've drilled
and they've cleaned up the spill.
Think the cost will come back to me and you?

Independence Day 2010

The people banded together to make their plea,
They were tired of taxes and yearned to be free.
They wrote it all down,
Thumbed their nose at the Crown,
And they won the victory for you and me.
