Spend their days, worry on their mind,
Pay high bills and now start to whine.
Make up their minds to make a new start,
Blackouts in California are now ripping out their heart.
Someone tell 'em who's at fault out there
Implemented deregulation without care.
Took their chances on unfounded claims,
Never let them tell you that the plans are all the same.
Companies in red and pull out today,
Wondered how many more would foldup still that way.
The people and businesses start to tremble and shake
And the politicians now begin to awake.
Seems that the scheme of those clods
Caught with low power and it stopped the flow;
They think they might be sinking.
Buy up new power, buy them more time
Till they find where they can buy the juice
Though the price is high.
Don't count on the selected new king,
They say he won't listen and starts to sings... la la
la
Everyone's nightmare is now starting to dawn
Help from the oil baron will never, never, never, ever
come.
Sitting in the dark of your now shattered dreams,
Telling yourself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.
