The oil craze in America has risen to new heights. The disaster in Louisiana makes you think twice about drill America drill. Iran, Pakistan, North Korea, are power hungry and China may be too.

The wars that we are engaged in

They are about oil,money,and drugs.

Thought we had good leadership

But some up there are thugs.

We were told that offshore drilling

would help to make us independent

Even a former governor of one state

called off shore drilling good sense.

Now four states are facing problems

Even if BP’s mess was without intent

Offshore drilling can cause disasters

Greed and avarice cause deep lament.

There is something about oil riches

That brings grief along with gain

The love of money is root of all evil

It brings wealth and also brings pain.

My friends read your dusty Bibles

Take great care in what it says

The middle east is a nuclear bomb

That will explodes in these last days.
