Oil

Oil

Oil my gosh!
The price of a barrel was minus three seven
I do not josh
If you had capacity
And lots of audacity
They’d pay you per barrel and much more, soon, even

It’s not oil war
Between Russians and Saudis
That’s small stuff so far
This is the canary
It’s really quite scary
Foretelling depression, a word, now, that’s naughty

Not hard to predict
Driving is down more than thirty percent
Producing oil isn’t
Cars aren’t being sold
From lots growing old
Their prices will drop until people will spend

People are scared
No matter State rulings it’s what people do
Based how their lives fare
They’ll keep social distances
Slowing plague’s instances
Slowing the economic recovery too
