Here we go again, drivers in a slump;

it's a frightful thing to pull up to the pump.

First it's down, then subtly it's back up;

does the petro industry need a grand checkup?

It's a classical gas, those gas prices are;

those who commute continue to have a scar.

Maybe the lawyers need more money, a subsidy;

too many oil spills, there's gotta be a remedy.

Let's improve the rails, only local truck distribution;

supply and demand, a better situation.

No more joy-riding, that's in the making;

use common sense, it's worth the taking.

Why keep making cars if there's not enough gas;

please don't ever say we've reached an impasse.

Maybe it's a sign, the writing on the wall;

still seems like a game, a real curve ball.

Here we go again, drivers in a slump;

it's a frightful thing to pull up to the pump.

Whether you're coming or going it makes no difference;

there's only one option, humbly pray for deliverance.
