The Lyrics

For all reasons why gas price keep going up are mostly due to Middle East conflict, global tensions, hurricane threats to oil platform across the Gulf of Mexico, violence in Nigeria, oil demand and China and India needs more fuel.
I see the gas prices go rising
I see it cost very more expensive.
I see the price up to $1.50
It may go up by spring time

CHORUS:
Don't go travel tonight,
Well, the gas price is very expensive
There's the gas price on the rise.

I see India and China needs more fuel
I know there's violence in Middle East
I fear there will be more hurricanes.
In Pakistan, Bhutto was assassinated.

CHORUS
All right!

Hope the hurricane season is milder.
Hope the violence in Mid-east comes to an end.
Looks like good news will decrease the gas prices.
One day the prices will go lower.

CHORUS
CHORUS
BRING THE GAS PRICE DOWN!!!

Is this your first attempt at a parody here? If so, welcome! Now, you have a worthy topic here, and this could have been a clever parody. However, your pacing is way off. You need to match your syllables to the rhythm of the original song. Also, it would help if you rhymed where the original song rhymed. Try this again, and resubmit this as "Gas Prices Rising (Revised Version)". Cut down the words; you have too many words or syllables per line. This could be hilarious if you do it right! BTW, I'm working on a gas-price-themed parody myself!

Me again. I thought I'd better give you an example. For instance, you wrote "I see India and China needs more fuel/I know there's violence in Middle East." Instead, do something like this: "I see China needs more fueling/I know there's war in the Mideast." See?
