For heaven's sake here is the environment going down the tubes,
And experts on the ozone layer are concerned about barbecues?
The starter fluid from the can that gets squirted on the coals?
Why this is of so great a concern, heaven only knows!
Sillier, they are also concerned with the gas of leavening bread
That gets released in the fermenting process, when it's at a head.
Dieticians say what can kill you is a daily dose of Twinkie,
But kill you before you eat them? The evidence is too skimpy.
A bigger threat is the window cleaner under your kitchen sink?
Another brilliant solution from "experts" paid to think.
Amazing! Their concern with such as the air around us crumbles,
We watch as the touted "expert" stumbles and fumbles and bumbles.
Money is tossed at commission studies headed by consultants
Whose primary conclusions have only wallet thickening resultants.
Claiming that all the "widgets" put on smokestacks and cars fail,
It is perhaps the case that the only solution is to put polluters in jail!
The problem is not that we must the ozone polution reduce.
It's that it be ELIMINATED, Sherlock Holmes not needed to deduce
That we are strangling our earth with fumes of a noxious sort,
Make the violators guilty of a crime and not just liable in tort.
The danger to our environment is not from mowers cutting grass,
It's from millions of cars burning billions of gallons of gas!
Someday we'll need an authority to simply utter, "Dammit,
No more gas burning cars will be allowed upon this planet!"
