Written for the USA Today request for an oil spill song.
Lyrics
Free From Oil
Lying on a beach littered in oil and tar
A pelican dies
Another bird cries
The whole world sighs
Swimming in a sea of melancholy crude
Marine life decays
We'd better pray
Is there a better way?
Free from oil
A better world
The sea is bluer in its absence
Free from oil
Free from oil
Free from oil
Sitting all alone on a deserted beach
A fisherman stares
Does anyone care?
Will the fish be there?
Free from oil
A better world
The sea is bluer in its absence
Free from oil
Free from oil
Free from oil
Solar energy and wind power
Alternatives to all this madness
Now we've had enough
It's only common sense
Free from oil
A better world
The sea is bluer in its absence
Free from oil
Free from oil
Free from oil
Free from oil
A better world
The sea is bluer in its absence
Free from oil
Free from oil
No more oil
