Yucca Mountain Blues Poem by Stanley Cooper

Rest assured, George W. has taken note
Nevada State has few electoral votes
Not much to fear on his political stump
If he uses Nevada for his nuclear dump

'There won't be a danger to Nevadans at all'
Claims this Texas ranger, in his cool Texas drawl
'Not to worry, you won't be debased
If we fill your surroundings with nuclear waste'

His political cronies all seem to agree
We Nevadans should thankfully accept this debris
How lucky we are to be poisoned this way
And honored to house this toxic decay

George W. Bush, no thanks for the privilege
Keep the nuclear junk out of our village
You say there's no danger, then with all due regard
Store it in Texas, in the Bush's back yard
