Natural Gas
I once bought a house with a wall of glass
Soon turned out it needed natural gas
Seemed like the American dream, only to find
Interest rate hikes, left my payments behind
I once bought a house it seemed a screamin' buy
Soon found out I was deep in a bind
It seemed like the American dream but I was so blind
Variable rate loan, left my payments behind
In between
What I find I'm earning and my power lines
The inflation numbers spewing are no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing it, it's just brand new
Foreclosures are not so good
I once bought a house with a wall of glass
Soon turned out it needed natural gas
Seemed like the American dream, only to find
Rising fuel prices, left my payments behind
I once bought a house it seemed a screamin' buy
Soon found out I was deep in a bind
It seemed like the American dream but I was so blind
Rising food prices, left my payments behind
Lost inside
My debt illusion and I cannot hide
I'm the one bankers' using, please don't let me slide
I'm feeling inflation's bruisin', yeah
Yeah, warmin' fingers on my one red hellish pilot light
I once bought a house with a wall of glass
Soon turned out to be a cold pain in my ass
Seemed like the American dream, only to find
An outsourced job, left my payments behind

Too funny and perhaps too accurate, lol.

Just seems more appropriate for the "natural" label.
Have you heard of the Darwin Awards?
Nominee #5 one year was....
Nominee No. 5: [Bloomberg News Service]: A terrible diet and a room with no ventilation are being blamed for the death of a man who was killed by his own gas emissions. There was no mark on his body, and an autopsy showed large amounts of methane gas in his system.
His diet had consisted primarily of beans and cabbage (and a couple of other things). It was just the right combination of foods. It appears that the man died in his sleep from breathing the poisonous cloud that was hanging over his bed.
Had he been outside or had his windows been opened, it wouldn't have been fatal. But the man was shut up in his nearly airtight bedroom. According to the article, "He was a big man with a huge capacity for creating "this deadly gas." Three of the rescuers got sick, and one was hospitalized.

Quite revolting, but at the same time somewhat amusing.

Good grief. Time for the dance re-mix version, lol.
The 25 pound bag of pinto beans, I could not pass
Soon turned out to give me natural gas
The rescuers got sick as they tried to find
The source of methane, it was just from my behind
Beans inside
This cloud is no illusion and I have no pride
I'm the one who's stewin', you'll get hospitalized
I'm bloatin' and I'm oozin', yeah
If you find this completely disgusting, as I do, compare and contrast to the sanctioned torturing of prisoners in the name of freedom. In my opinion the mangled lyrics seem "polite" and "proper" by comparison. ;)
