lyrics

Send me down the Ohio
To the Gulf of Mexico
Bring out your oil, bring out your dead
Bring me Tony Hayward's head

We are from different worlds
We are from different worlds
And I don't want to share this one with you.

Set all the killers and rapists free
Put them in charge of your company
Send your dogs to lie to me
So many times that I'll believe in anything.

Nothing gonna change
Nothing gonna grow
What happens when you drop a match
In the Gulf of Mexico?

Well the beach got her shiny black sheen
The bayou smell like kerosene
Things got bad, things got worse
'Til the earth was just a big black hearse

We are from different worlds
We are from different worlds
And I don't want to share this one with you.

I didn't want to write this song, you know
But the people got nowhere else to go
Put it in a bunch of useless words
Then send me down the Ohio.

Nothing gonna change
Nothing gonna grow
What happens when you drop a match
In the Gulf of Mexico?

Drill, baby, drill!
Burn, baby, burn!
