You Tube: #79th Most Discussed - Music - June 1, 2010
I notice there are several Gulf oil spill songs now, one of which is called, "BP You Suck." But I started writing my song several weeks ago, so I'll keep my title...they just posted their's last week. :) I love protest songs.....thanks to Scott, (cadwalladee) for encouraging me on this one.
And pass this video on to others if you like it and wish to protest yourself. :)
BP, You Really Suck
copyright 2010
Verse 1
When I order blackened shrimp
I don't mean blackened by oil
And I like to go to Panama City
With my beaches unspoiled
And I like buying souvenirs
And tacky flip flops
Be a shame if I couldn't find 'em
'Coz your actions closed the gift shops
Chorus
And BP, you really suck
You destroyed the Gulf Coast
Just to save a buck
And I won't buy gas at your station
Until you clean things up
Ah, BP, you really suck
Verse 2
Some shrimper in Lousiana
Lost a job because of you
And the pelicans would like to flip you off
If they had a finger or two
And our way of life is threatened
Dying on those white sands
I'm sure it sucks to be you
With all that oil on your hands
I was expecting someone stupid when I saw ''You Really Suck'' but you're amazing and I'm sorry for doubting you. You need more recognition for this song.
