"You're So Green"
(an ode to the old and new bp sung to Carly Simon's "You're so Vain")
Carly Simon – You’re So Vain (Lyric Video)
{Sorry Carly, I love you but couldn't help stealing your song}
You walked into the townhall like you had been voted man of the year
The questions all screened to make you look good
Your smile was not sincere
You had one eye in on your twitter feed as you watched yourself Yammer
And all eco-warriors dreamed that they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner, and...
You're so green, you probably think you’re saving the world now
You're so green, I'll bet you think you’re saving the world now
Don't you? Don't you?
You worked in petroleum years ago before climate change was cool {bad pun intended}
When you said oil was important and drilling was fine
But now I feel like a fool
You sold off all our oil fields one of them was mine
I had some stock it was key to retirement
Key to retirement, and...
You're so green, you probably think you’re saving the world now
You're so green, I'll bet you think you’re saving the world now
Don't you? Don't you? Don't you?
I had some dividends they were key to retirement
Key to retirement, and...
You're so green, you probably think you’re saving the world now
You're so green, I’ll bet you think you’re saving the world now
Don't you? Don't you?
Well, I hear you went to Fowler Ridge because windfarms are so fun
Then you flew your Lear jet out to Colorado
To see how solar operations were run
Well, you're where you should be all the time
And when you're not you're with some renewables guy
Or a cute bp employee a cute bp employee and...
You're so green, you probably think you’re saving the world now
You're so green, I’ll bet you think you’re saving the world now
Don't you? Don't you? Don't you?
You're so green, you probably think you’re saving the world
You're so green, you probably think you’re saving the world
You're so green, bet you think you’re saving the world
