A process used since ancient times
intended to deceive;
well known to cheats and scalawags
to hucksters and to thieves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First rob a bank – get some cash –
then make it nice and clean.
Laundering is magical –
it cleans! – or so it seems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today there is a different trick
from gods of sun and wind.
Skip the mining and refining –
use a little spin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
First drill a hole – get oil and gas –
then make it nice and clean.
Laundering is magical –
it comes out labeled green. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’re headin’ back to ancient times
and that won’t be a joke.
‘Cuz if we cut our fossil fuel – \u00a0\u00a0
our grid is gonna’ choke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
