    Here’s one that was posted at Unbossed a while ago – a new version of the Bangles’ “Eternal Flame”:

    The oil industry likes to be called “darling”
    So they teamed up with Cheney
    To set energy policy
    Nuclear, coal, and gas
    Joined their secret meetings
    All while we’re facing global climate change

    The White House said, that Blair guy won’t win, darling
    Though scientists may give warnings
    We’ll deny the facts
    We’ll alter the reports
    And claim we need more studies
    We want to keep you free to cause climate change

    Say good-bye
    To the climate, cause Clear Skies
    Or other misnamed regulation
    Will cause thousands more to die
    Just so you can keep your profits

    The auto industry is also a key, darling
    Along with mountaintop miners
    And let’s not forget logging
    So open up public lands
    Don’t budge at the G8 meeting
    That’s the recipe for global climate change
