Lyrics

Verse 1

Well, the pumps are dry and the prices high,

Petrol dreams just up and die.

The suits on TV say, "Don’t you cry!"

But the tank’s on empty and so am I.

Pre-Chorus

They wave their hands, say "It’s all supply!"

While the rich get richer, the poor just sigh.

But wait—what’s that? A shiny lie?

Orange Man on screen with a twinkle in his eye!

Chorus

Oil slick, oil slick, black gold fever!

Pocket the change while we work for free, sir!

Oil slick, oil slick, what a scheme!

Drown out the truth in a gasoline dream!

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh-oh, pump the lies!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, watch ‘em rise!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, same old disguise!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, orange MAN’S DIVERSION!

Verse 2

Epstein’s name was in the news,

Files so hot they’d burn your shoes.

But hey, look here! A brand-new ruse!

"The oil’s the crisis!"—what a bruise!

Pre-Chorus

He coughed and choked on Hormuz straits,

"I’ll send the ships! I’ll seal their fates!"

But the only thing that ever sank?

His golf swing and a half-baked plan!

Chorus

Oil slick, oil slick, black gold fever!

Pocket the change while we work for free, sir!

Oil slick, oil slick, what a scheme!

Drown out the truth in a gasoline dream!

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh-oh, pump the lies!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, watch ‘em rise!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, same old disguise!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, ORANGE

Bridge

"Folks, it’s a crisis—blame the cartels!"

(Yeah, orange Man, we believe you… like hell!)

"The market’s wild, it’s out of hand!"

(Funny how your pals own the oil land…)

Chorus

Oil slick, oil slick, black gold fever!

Pocket the change while we work for free, sir!

Oil slick, oil slick, what a scheme!

Drown out the truth in a petrol dream!

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh-oh, pump the lies!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, watch ‘em rise!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, same old disguise!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, ORANGE MAN’S DIVERSION!

Outro

So fill ‘er up and don’t you peek,

The orange man behind the curtain’s cheek,

Just hum along to the slickest trick:

"It’s not the crime—it’s the oil, you stick!"

I know it looks scary but don't be afraid

At least we know A.I. is doing great
