Protecting A Dirty Oil Company
Once upon a time not so long ago (and this is no fairy tale)
I was working executive security just trying to earn that dime
Stationed in South East Texas in the town of Enron’s fame
One Friday eve on the maintenance elevator I chose to ride
43 rd floor my goal, it’s the home of Presidential fame ya know
Quietly checking offices to see if all workers were weekend bound
Two male voices I hear, coming down the hall so very clear
Having a conversation that no one was ever suppose to hear
There was a former Governor very well known as “our boy” round there
His Presidential bid going slow, gave “our boy 3 million more today”
These the words of my boss as he was bragging to his callous friend
At this time gas sold about 70 cents, way to low for the likes of them
Boss bragging to his buddy how Our Boy was Oval Office bound
Having one of these puppets on a string, is every oil mans dream
Bragging how that soon the whole Country they would be shagging
To the other suit this Oil company’s President was boasting and bragging
That within 8 months of taking office, Our Boy would have gas $2 a gallon
Three times the current rate, for the Oil Companies, no doubt that’s great
Not caring that the whole world’s infrastructure would be drowning
To me these type of acts toward our country is nothing short of treason
To bad these good ole boys, to realize their dream, had to wait until 2000
