Subject: RE: A song for today (please finish it)
There's a guitar-playing roughneck
Sittin' on a gangplank
Knowin' that he's outflanked
Wishin' for a sandbank
Tryin' to find the "off" crank
For the crude oil comin' from
The hole in the bottom of the sea.

Here's a gulf coast landfall
Lookin' like a tar pit
Smellin' like an arm pit
Critters in their death fits
Wishin' they could just split
From the sticky gunk comin'
From the hole in the bottom of the sea.

You'd think some Texan would have found a big enough cork by now....
