the black gold

The black gold turns into tragedy
On the seas and natural vegetation
Of the birds trapped into the oil spill
The greed of Man knows no boundary

The shattering tremors
On the moving seas
The black gold smoke
The life out of greed

The innocence pay
For the black gold rampage
On the swampy land and seas
The power of greed lays it bare

The costs of mopping up
The black gold the eyes see tragedy
On the ripples taking its toll
The lonely savager the black gold leaks
