about
Notes: Written in frustration over the 87 days it took to stop BPs massive Deepwater Horizon oil spill off the coast of Louisiana. My first feeble and brief foray into the art of “tapping”, a technique in which the guitar strings are played with the fret hand, while the strumming hand takes a break. Recorded straight up.
lyrics
Stop the Leak, stop the leak
stop the leak right now
do what it takes, take what it makes
to stop the leak right now
no talking heads, no hungry press
no bureaucratic cow-tow
stop the leak, stop the leak
stop the leak right now
Lets drill the east, Lets drill the south
lets drill the great Northwest
Lets make our own, lets be alone
lets do what we know best
Stop the leak, stop the leak
stop the leak right now
We got so much money, we do what we wanna
We’ve got so much power, we’re bigger than Obama
we got trains, we got planes, we got automobiles
oil fauna
We got trains we got planes
we got automobiles
we got clout
we don’t shout
we got shady business deals
stop the leak, stop the leak
stop the leak right now
stop the pleading, stop the bleeding
stop the leak right now
