Oil Everywhere Songtext
von Wyland Blues Planet Band

I went down to the beach
In the Gulf of Mexico
I went down to the beach
In the Gulf of Mexico
There was oil everywhere
Oil on my feet
And all on the street
Everything was covered
Everywhere you see
Stinky oil still on me

Now it′s in the water
Now it's the air
Not too late to care
Time to take a stand
I′m mad as hell
This stuff sure does smell


So get on your feet
Get on your feet, people
And really make some noise
Join together one and all
Another generation just must not fall

Oil everywhere
Man, I just can't breathe
Going down to the water
Salt in my blood
Tears in my eyes
Oil in the mud
Oil in the marshes
On all the flying birds, too
Dolphins covered up and dying
man, they can't even breathe

Even great whales are feeling the effect below the sea
Oil is everywhere
As far as I can see
No one can breathe
I long for the old days
Old days where the water was blue


You know it′s our time
It′s our time
'Cause I know we find a way
I went down to the beach
In the Gulf of Mexico
I went down to the beach
In the Gulf of Mexico
There was oil everywhere
Oil on my feet
All on the street
