about
1700 hectares may seem like quite a large area of land (I mean... it is), but when it comes to Canadian industry and their projects it isn't.
lyrics
The lands of Alberta are getting rusty and only industry can oil them up. Auctioned off, I buy small but the accumulated effect is so big. I buy small but I don't stop, I keep going, it's perpetual, it's ongoing, it's depleting and for the caribou it's defeating. Who cares, who knows, short attention what? What the fuck, shut up. I buy small small small, only 1700 hectares. Sure it's small, so was the last 1700, and the 1700 before that. Management buys small as to keep a hush and downplay the fuss.
But I don't stop, no I keep going, it's perpetual, it's ongoing, it's depleting, and for the caribou it's defeating. We'll frack frack fucking frack and the poisoned water will make your body go crack. No consent, our government granted legality confirms success. It's the Alberta oil authority, and empathy is out of stock, all gone. Our last customer bought it all, cleaned out the shelves. Their name is 'Fuck Off and Die' and they're here to stay to make you pay. It's a capitalists dream and it ain't friendly.
