lyrics

Yo this one goes out to all the pimps at Goldman Sachs
Suckas be crooked-rich---and that's a fact
Shit be like Madoff---politicans is paid off, American people are the ones who get laid-off

Lloyd Blankfein got sacks of gold. John q public got his ass told. Bankers mad rich but their hearts be mad cold. Foreclosure son! Your house got sold.

Your boy, Uncle Sam; he be mad broke
That bum cant afford to buy an egg yoke
Sucked up all the money and about to choke---
So print 700 billion with a key-stroke.

The FED prints money quantative easing
That shits a quick fix, and we're still bleeding
If they go too far, its the another Wiemar,
Inflation shooting up like a rocket to mars.

Banksters don't wanna pay for fiscal catastrophe
But taxing the markets, they call it blasphemy?
Their arrogant decadence is fucking with me
And Criminals got to pay for their crimes ya see

So what you want to do
I want to Tap Dat Asset
You a solvent motherfucker when you
tax dat asset
Uncle Sam, Who you playin with
Tap Dat Asset
Make it rain benjamins
tax dat asset


Once upon a time there was a Prof named Tobin
Saw all the currency swishing and the globe an
He said, "lets put a levy on all that bread
Speculators pay---governments get ahead."

Tobin No-bel lau-re-at,
numbers where the glory at.
Seeing speculators pay so government get more of dat
Cash to pay for programs, and reduce the deficit

Dollar bills, euros, yen, francs, renmimbi
Speculators pay be they English or Hindi
With a tiny little tax they would have to invest
and some of our fiscal needs will be redressed.

Flash crash! Dow Jones lost 1000 points
when hal the trading robot was smoking mad joints.
Stocks, derivitive, currency, commodity,
Tiny tax on those will make crashes is an oddity

After the bailout bankers are whining
Won't pay a dime, they just stay fine dining--
A Tobin tax to them is not so funny
they wiping up their tears with wads of our money

what you want to do
I want to Tap Dat Asset
You a solvent motherfucker when you
tax dat asset
Uncle Sam, Who you playin with
Tap Dat Asset
Make it rain
benjamins
tax dat asset

Banksters don't wanna pay for fiscal catastrophe
But taxing the markets, they call it blasphemy?
Their arrogant decadence is fucking with me
And criminals got to pay for their crimes ya see.

Another Nobel laureate whose seen the light
His name is Krugman on the mic device.

The name is K-R-U-G M-A-N
They call me K-RUG. Ya'll better understand
NYT November 26, 2009
financial transaction tax, its about time
Financial system s broken, time to redesign
So lets tax markets we'll be fine

Security Transaction Excise Tax
Some call it a STET, and homey that's a fact
Like an acupuncturist pin prick cures a malady
makes financial pain distant reality

"in the UK Prime Minister Brown
tried a stet on the city of Londontown
It didn't fly, it went down in flames
Corruption in politics name of the game.

in the US the idea gained traction
congressman DeFazio introduced an action
The "make wall street pay for the restoration of main street act"
votes got stacked, bill got whacked,
but they print out mad bills for goldman sachs,
Lets pass that shit before its too late.
Mo-fos in Ways and Means makin us wait.

Wall street robs main street we sit in defeat
They sipping champagne while we can't even eat
They robbing us blind while we online tweet.
lets tax the motherfuckers, we can fight and not retreat.

There is a way we can put a stop to this
Gotta handle this like a democratic populous
Call your congressman or your newspaper columnist.
we can make the change that's best for all of us.
Grab your pitchfork and end this plutocracy!
only way to save our pseudo-democracy.

Shoutouts
Gordon Brown
DeFazio
