The banking crisis has absolutely decimated most Western economies, so obviously those responsible have been held to account, Right!
No! they are still walking free, and are still stealing from us in ever more devious ways. If I have offended anyone, that will make my year!
lyrics
You've got savings to invest
Looking for good interest
He's a banker and he very seldom lies
Your assets he'll write off
Once his snout is in your trough
Low returns but his commission rates are high
If I could find some word that rhymes with banker
This would be a very different song
So far I only can come up with hanker
But to hanker for a banker sounds so wrong
They're the Bank that just says yes
And en route to world success
Step inside and get yourself a hefty loan
Though their interest rates are high
And they're out to bleed you dry
When times get hard, they'll repossess your home
He has got a smart sports car
Drinks champagne, eats caviar
Living tax free on your cash he sent offshore
And the trophy wife he bought
Looks good draped upon his yacht
He has everything he needs but still wants more
The financial market's in a rut
And his bonuses has been cut
And he needs our subsidy to ease his pain
But don't expect any thanks
For rescuing the banks
Come the upturn, he will screw us all again
