All Hail Marcellus Shale
©2009
Enter the darkness, in the ground,
Frack it, attack it, damn that sound!
Gas to be drilled, big money found,
Spewing their chemicals, all around.
Steal the water, from the fish,
Pump it, pipe it, spot the dish.
Secret formula? Aw tish-tish,
Resolve it later, don’t we wish!
Will it all, to your kids’ grandkids,
Don’t drink the water, or eat the squids.
We got ours, now you got yours,
Fracking ground, pumped full of horrors!
Marcellus money, came and went,
Our mad gas rush, screamed 'Hellbent!'
Royalty checks gone, can’t pay rent,
Environment scarred, beyond Repent.
We still live here, sick descendants say,
What were you thinking, damn that play!
Your seeps and pollution, taint our hay,
You stole from us, to claim your day.
All Hail, Marcellus Shale!
Big business won, without fail.
Descendants looking, in the mail,
Royalty checks gone, water frail.
