about

Scott Pruitt is the perfect person to destroy... er... run the EPA (into the ground, figuratively and literally). And of course the Koch Boys are right there with him.

lyrics

Feed the addiction
(Drill baby drill)
Screw the science fiction
(Drill baby drill)
Listen to the Koch boys
(Drill baby drill)
Screw the Keystone killjoys
(Drill baby drill)

The summers are hot
The winters get colder
Will the planet be here
When our children get older?
It's a wonderful life
For those who get to live it
When the planet goes dark,
It's taking us with it

Deepwater Valdez
(Spill baby spill)
Greenland is melting
(Chill baby chill)
All the pretty wildlife
(Kill baby kill)
All the lonely people
(Kill baby kill)

When you cut the last tree,
Catch the last fish,
Poison the sea,

Earth has a lesson to give:
You can’t eat money to live

The summers are hot
The winters get colder
Will the planet be here
When our children get older?
It's a wonderful life
For those who get to live it
When the planet goes dark,
It's taking us with it.

We're addicted to oil
And so we must drill it
Such a wonderful place
It's a shame we must kill it
Such a miserable life
And humans are the cancer
On the face of the Earth
But Nature has an answer...
