An uncontrolled rush for growth, Will ruin all our dreams, Well lend out money to anyone Crash the banks and cause a global crunch. Bonuses and bailouts, Its a steal, Thats the deal, Were sitting up on the edge,
Mad fans of Pirates of the Caribbean and all things Buccaneer!! and anything to raise a smile
Story behind the song
Consumerism & debt, the 21st Century disaster!!
Lyrics
Thrill me with your acumen,
Tell me how’d you get there?
Does it ever occur to you, now what exactly are you talking about?
While all the suckers are out there,
Waiting for the question to arise,
We’ll be cleaning up,
We’ll make a killin’
We’ll make a killin’ overnight.
Everybody accepts that one,
Coz it’s the one that we have,
We’ll turn them on to something new,
And watch the others pass their sell by date.
Now they think this one is better,
Better than the one that’s gone before,
It’s a market revolution,
Sell the next one,
We can sell for more
We can sell for more.
You’re in the market place,
You’ve got your sales pitch,
You’ve got your index ready to rise.
You’re on your power trip,
You’ve got your business tip,
You’ve got your index ready to rise.
You got your pension funds,
Your share options,
You count your houses just for the fun.
Your gold plated friends,
Which you see now and again,
Telling you they sold another one.
Everybody only thinks about themselves -themselves
Everybody only thinks about themselves -themselves.
?
We’ve got ourselves a new idea,
Radical in its reforms,
To get it to work will take a couple of years,
But, baby, that’s what investments for.
They will not know what’s hit them,
They’ll be screaming and shouting for more,
We get the perks of the job,
Could you be asking?
Could you be asking for more?
An uncontrolled rush for growth,
Will ruin all our dreams,
We’ll lend out money to anyone –
Crash the banks and cause a global crunch.
Bonuses and bailouts,
It’s a steal,
That’s the deal,
We’re sitting up on the edge,
It’s looking bleak from,
It’s looking bleak from
It’s looking bleak from here.
You’re in the market place,
You’ve got your sales pitch,
You’ve got your index ready to rise.
You’re on your power trip,
You’ve got your business tip,
You’ve got your index ready to rise.
You’re buying into it,
You’ve got a taste for it,
The bubble bursts and never survives.
We’ve taken part of it,
That’s just the start of it,
The bubble’s burst,
Never get out alive.....
Everybody only thinks about themselves -themselves
Everybody only thinks about themselves -themselves.
Everybody only thinks about themselves -themselves
Everybody only thinks about themselves -themselves.
