NO MONEY!


The bailout monies
did not go through

Now, what's the Wall Street
gang gonna do

why, the CEO's will
collect their pay

Run off to the tropics
play in the sun all day

There's no accountability
none to take the fall

Except the naive Americans
somehow, to take it all

Make no mistake it's not just them
there's more to take the blame

Americans on a beer budget
but chose to drink champagne

Who would pay the mortgage
when the interest rate went higher

I guess they had magical thinking
and to themselves a liar

The house, now gone, their credit trashed
What good did any of it do

Life, now harder for all of us
biting off more than we could chew

Money Down The Drain


Bail out to come,
for the Wall Street crooks,

Our hard earned money,
to fix their books;

The figure is high,
cannot be repaid,

They won't even try,
just a promise they made;

The white shirted bureaucrats,
won't feel a thing,

The American people,
to feel the sting;

How much money,
how much more can they need,

The amount just grows higher,
we can't fill their greed;

The whip lashes harder,
on ALL workers backs,

What we get for our toil,
Just higher TAX.

Politics....PHOOOEEEYYYY!!!!


It makes me mad, this push and pull,
between Republicans and Democrats;

Their ALL politicians, in it for themselves,
some snakes, others, they are rats;

Sitting high above, they're placed on pedestals,
hand extended and waiting for their pay;

We've come to believe, it's a privilege,
to send our hard earned money, day after day;

It started, I thought, to run our country;
It's our lives, that it's now overtook,

Too much money, too much power, it's a magnet,
attracts the power hungry, greedy and the crooks;

Americans, open your eyes, we must WAKE UP!,
it's slipping away, each and every day;

We see it happening, but sit idly by,
NO BENEFITS FOR YOU, their gonna say;

Until the core of government is fixed,
the common man back at the reigns;

Someone who will fight, for the hard working Americans,
Shoot down the Senate, the Congress and their games;

It's gonna be the same old, same old,
no matter who they decide to elect;

Go to work, pay your taxes and get older,
Say nothing that's politically incorrect.
