The Koch brothers greedy and vile
Own the Tea Party gang rank and file
The pipeline’s their goal
And to get it they’d roll
Every family – man, woman, and child
So they shoved Keystone oil in the bill
And if they don’t get it they’ll kill
Our tax break, our checks
We can hang by our necks
Fuck us all – they’ve got oil to drill
These two slimy criminal creeps
And their ignorant Tea Party peeps
Have by their hypocricy
Damaged democracy
Laughing as Liberty weeps
But as I write this the tax cut’s agreed on
I know ‘cause I have the TV on
For the Koch’s there’s no oil
Their Christmas is spoiled
Since for now they’ve no peasants to pee on
And if, as you’re reading this, you
Think this theft try’s got nothing to do
With you and your life
Think again – there’s a knife
Held against all our throats by this crew

Interesting that the stranger side finally relented when all eyes were actually on their cold-hearted indifference. I saw some idiot representative say they were sorry they had to give in because they were working so hard to help us. (?)
Another good one, Tony. You help me keep my eyes open.
