I am Daniel.
I am Zach-a-wacking.
Zach-a-wacking am I.
That Zach-a-wacking,
That Zach-a-wacking!
I do not like,
That Zach-a-wacking.
Do you like fracking?
I do not like fracking,
Zach-a-wacking.
Would you like it,
Here or there?
I would not like fracking,
Here or there.
I would not like it anywhere.
I do not like fracking.
I do not like it, Zach-a-wacking.
Would you like fracking,
Near your house?
Would you like fracking,
Near a mouse?
I would not like fracking,
Near my house.
I would not like fracking,
Near a mouse.
I do not like fracking,
Here or there.
I would not like it anywhere.
I do not like fracking.
I do not like it, Zach-a-wacking.
Would you like fracking,
Near a bubbling stream?
Would you like fracking,
Near your baseball team?
Not near my house.
Not near a mouse.
Not near a bubbling stream,
Not near my baseball team.
I do not like fracking,
Here or there.
I would not like it anywhere.
I do not like fracking.
I do not like it, Zach-a-wacking.
Would you? Could You?
Near a playground?
We drill up, down, all around.
No, that is not sound.
I would not, could not,
Near a playground.
How about in your county?
Just wait. You’ll see!
Fracking brings bounty.
For all! For me!
I do not like fracking,
Zach-a-wacking.
I do not want it,
Near my house.
I do not want it,
Near a mouse.
I do not want it,
Near a bubbling stream.
I do not want it,
Near my baseball team.
I do not want it,
Near my playground.
I do not want it,
in my county.
Zach-a-wacking,
I can’t let this be.
Water is too important,
to let you drill for a fee.
