LLOYDIE'S GOT A GUN
(Janie's Got a Gun, Aerosmith)
WilliamBanzai7
Dum, dum, dum, Lloydie what have you done
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound of my golden bailout gun
Dum, dum, dum, Lloydie what have you done
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound, it's the sound...
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah....
Lloydie's got a gun
Lloydie's got a gun
His whole secret world's come undone
From looking straight at the sun
What did all this squid publicity do?
What did it put him through?
They say when Lloydie was arrested
They found him underneath a Metro North train
But man, he had it comin'
Now that Lloydie's got a gun
He ain't never gonna be the same
Lloydie's got a gun
Lloydie's got a gun
Squid bonus season's just begun
Now every Goldman squid is on the run
Tell him now it's untrue
What did those vampire squid articles do?
He jacked the little bitty baby
The man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under
The lightin' and the thunder
Knew that someone had to stop the public disdain
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

PRESIDENT OBAMA
Every time I look at you in disgust I don't understand
Why we let Wall Street just get so out of hand.
You could'nt have managed better if you'd had it planned.
Why'd you choose to sink AIG in derivative quick sand?
If you'd come today you would be lynched by a whole nation.
The result of your insatiable greed would be mass extermination.
Don't you get me wrong.
I only want to know.
CHOIR
Goldman Sachs, Goldman Sachs,
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Goldman Sachs Bailout Super Stars,
Do you really believe you're what you say you are?
PRESIDENT OBAMA
Tell me what you think about your former friends at the top.
Who'd you think besides yourselves's the pick of the subprime crop?
Lehman, was that where it was at? They are not where you are now?
Could Bear have found use for Bernanke's magic mountain, or was that just bad PR?
Did you mean to go like that? Was it a mistake, or
Certainly you know your messy death would have been a record Wall Street breaker?
Don't you get me wrong.
I only want to know.
CHOIR
Goldman Sachs, Goldman Sachs,
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Goldman Sachs Bailout Super Stars,
Just who the Hell do you think you are?

Nov 9th 2009 8:34AM " 'For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away, even that he hath'.
This passage of course refers to the acquisition of more knowledge of the truth as theologians tell us; but the Money Kings of Wall Street like to give its interpretation a little twist in their favor, and say that it refers to the acquisition of more greenbacks, by the big fellows from the little ones.
In fact this class of people appear to hold the opinion that if they would succeed in anything questionable or crooked, there is nothing like misinterpreting the scriptures their own way, so as to apparently justify them in their rascality before the public.
The connection of such men with churches...has done more to spread infidelity and cast ridicule upon the good cause of the church than almost anything else.
The success of this class of gamblers has an influence for evil upon the business world that is little realize, success through their methods being a contradiction to the good old business maxim that 'Honesty is the best policy' and a travesty upon it."

Timmy Geithner threw a party for the dumb that failed.
Benny Bernanke's band was there and they began to wail.
The band was jumpin and the joint began to swing.
You shouldve heard those feckless CEO turds sing.
Lets rock, everybody, lets rock.
Everybody on the whole was hocked
and dancin to the bailout rock.
Hanky Paulsen played the corporate welfare saxophone,
Barack Obammy was blowin on the bailout trombone.
The drummer boy from Detroit went crash, boom, bang,
The whole rhythm section was the red ink gang.
Lets rock, everybody's in hock.
Everybody in the whole capitalist block
Was dancin to the bailout rock.
Number 1 Trillion went to number three:
Youre the cutest welfare bird I ever did see.
I sure would be delighted with your insolvent company,
Come on and do the bailout rock with me.
Lets rock, everybody's in hock.
Everybody in the whole capitalist block
Was dancin to the bailout rock.
Motown sad sack was a sittin on a block of stone
Way over in the corner weepin all alone.
Uncle Sammy said, hey, buddy, dont you be no square.
If you cant find a way out use the taxpayer's chair.
Lets rock, everybody's in hock.
Everybody in the wholecapitalist block
Was dancin to the bailout rock.
Shifty Blankfein said to Liddy, for heavens sake,
No ones lookin, nows our chance to make a break.
Liddy turned to shifty and he said, nix nix,
I wanna stick around a while and get my bailout kicks.
Lets rock, everybody's in hock.
Everybody in the whole capitalist block
Was dancin to the bailout rock.

SCREW YOUR BOND'S TODAY IN YOUR BAILOUT CHEVROLET
WilliamBanzai7
Singalong:
Screw your Bond's today in your Chevrolet
America is inviting you to the bailout mall
Drive your credit rates through the old tail gate
America's the greatest bailout land of all!
On the bailout highway or a bankrupt road along the old TARP levy
Non-performance is sweeter
Nothing can be deadbeater
Welfare living is completer when your Chevy
So make a date today to flush your bonds away
And do it in your Bailout Chevrolet.
Travelin East
Travelin West
Wherever you go give your debt service a rest
Southward or North,
Near place or far,
There's another squeaker brought to you by those Motown canards
Screw your Bonds today in your Chevrolet
Those Wall Street hedge fund pests are all but through
Drive your Chevrolet on the USA
Where fields of bailout gold and handout treats are given to the privileged few
Whether travelin light or with a debt load that is heavy
Non performance is sweeter
Nothin can be deadbeater
Welfare living is completer when your Chevy
So make a date today to flush your bonds away
And do it in your Bailout Chevrolet.

Jun 1st 2009 9:20AM WHO KILLED BIG AUTO
(Who Killed Davey Moore?, Bob Dylan)

Sing along link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62daicHQ9as
Who killed the BIG AUTO?,
Why an' what's the reason for?
"Not I," says the FECKLESS MOTOWN CEO ,
"Don't point your finger at me.
I could've retooled it to much better CAFE rate
An' maybe kept it from this fate,
But the customers and dealers would've booed, I'm sure,
At not gettin' their money's worth.
It's too bad it had to go,
But there was a pressure on me too, you know.
It wasn't me that made it fall.
No, you can't blame me at all."
Who killed BIG AUTO ,
Why an' what's the reason for?
"Not us," says the URBAN SUV WARRIOR CROWD,
Whose off road dreams created one big greenhouse gas cloud.
"It's too bad it died alright
But we just love that high line of sight.
We didn't mean for it to meet this death,
We just wanted a safe ride instead,
There ain't nothing wrong in that.
It wasn't us that made it fall.
No, you can't blame us at all."
Who killed BIG AUTO,
Why an' what's the reason for?
"Not we," says the politician,
Puffing on a BIG OIL private label cigar.
"It's hard to say, it's hard to tell,
I always thought that BIG AUTO was well.
It's too bad for Detroit City its dead,
But if it was sick, they should've said.
It wasn't me that made it fall.
No, you can't blame me at all."
Who killed BIG AUTO,
Why an' what's the reason for?
"Not we," say the GAMBLING SHAREHOLDERS and BONDHOLDERS,
With their proxies and coupons still in their hands.
"It wasn't us that knocked it down,
We always thought the Directors would do what needed to be done.
We didn't commit no ugly sin,
Anyway, we put money on it to win.
It wasn't us that made it fall.
No, you can't blame us at all."
Who killed the BIG AUTO,
Why an' what's the reason for?
"Not me," says the UAW NEGOTIATOR,
Surfing for member benefits like a used lemon trader,
Sayin', "Unions ain't to blame,
There's always legacy costs built in the automotive game."
Sayin', "Big labor is here to stay,
It's just the good old American way.
It wasn't me that made him fall.
No, you can't blame me at all."
Who killed BIG AUTO,
Why an' what's the reason for?
"Not we," say the JAPANESE whose well managed fists
Laid it low in a cloud of hybrids and "kaizen" mist,
Who came here after the Second World War
Where efficient design was shown Motown's back door.
"We hit em, we hit em, yes, it's true,
But that's what global competition is meant to do.
Don't say 'murder,' don't say 'kill.'
It was engineering destiny, it was divine will."
Who killed the BIG AUTO,
Why an' what's the reason for?

Jun 1st 2009 9:18AM LITTLE BAILOUT CORVETTE
(Little Red Corvette, Prince)
The Artist Formerly Known as WilliamBanzai7
I guess I should've known by the way U designed your cars with tanks tilted sideways
That it wouldn't last
See, U're the kinda company that believes in makin' out once
Love 'em, but not made to last
I guess I must be dumb cuz U had a pocket full of SUV horses
Some of them new and some of them used
But it was Bailout Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right
And U say - "What have I got 2 lose?"
And honey, I say Little Bailout Corvette
Baby, Toyota will kick your ass
Little Bailout Corvette
U need consumer love that's gonna last
I guess I should've closed my eyes when U drove me 2 the place
Where your high octane horses run free
Cuz I felt a little ill when I saw all the bills
From those camel jockeys, damn it oil ain't for free
Believe it or not, I started 2 worry
I wondered if I had enough gas
But it was Bailout Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right
And U say - "Baby, have U got enough gas?"
Oh yeah!
Little Bailout Corvette
Baby, U're capitalist iconoclast(Yes U are)
Little Bailout Corvette
U need 2 find consumer love that's gonna last (Oh, oh)
A Board of Directors yours oughta be in jail
Cuz it's dumbness on the verge of bein' obscene
Move over, dummies, Uncle Sammy got the bailout keys
He's gonna try 2 tame your money burning machine
Little Bailout Corvette
Baby, Toyota really kicked your ass
Little Bailout Corvette
Need 2 find consumer love that's gonna last, hey hey
Little Bailout Corvette
Honey, U got 2 slow down (Got 2 slow down)
Little Bailout Corvette
Cuz if U don't, U're gonna run your little bailout Corvette right in the ground
(Little Bailout Corvette)
