Obama don't care

I feel compelled to set the whole gulf oil spill travesty to music; and what better song to model it after than "Blue tail fly" made famous by the legendary troubador Burl Ives.

But before we start I want to address the thought that I am being too hard on Obama. Those of you who think this way must have short memories. Remember all of the horrible, horrid, horrific and slanderous things that were said about President Bush following 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina? Again, as I have said before, you can't have it both ways!

So grab your pitch pipe, get a key, and sing along, again to the tune "Blue tail fly"...

Verse 1: Remember in two thousand ten,
the rig explosion killed some men;
and filled the gulf with ugly crude,
that put us in the foulest mood.

Chorus 1: We've got a spill, obama don't care,
we've got a spill, obama don't care,
we've got a spill, obama don't care,
perhaps he'll go away!

Verse 2: The cleanup started off real good,
and BP did all that it could;
the government got in the way,
and the oil still flows today.

Chorus 2: Let the oil flow, obama don't care,
let the oil flow, obama don't care,
let the oil flow, obama don't care,
it'll never go away!

Verse 3: He visited a time or two,
but never stepped into the goo;
but then he declared with a hiss,
BP will surely pay for this!

Chorus 3: We'll make them pay, obama don't care,
we'll make them pay, obama don't care,
we'll make them pay, obama don't care.
BP just go away!

Verse 4: The men came in to skim and dredge,
to save the gulf coast was their pledge;
the government said "go away,
we're waitin' on the EPA"!

Chorus 4: More red tape, obama don't care,
more red tape, obama don't care,
more red tape, obama don't care,
he'll never go away!

Verse 5: And years from now as we look back,
upon the gulf coast covered black;
but mother nature healed her own,
and sent obama marching home!

Chorus 5: It's over now, obama don't care,
it's over now, obama don't care'
it's over now, obama don't care,
he finally went away!
