Banks

Chorus Banks! Banks! Let us all do away with banks And their dirty tricks and their silly pranks Banks! Banks! They mean very little to me If I was the king all banks will be history If I was the king all banks will be history If I was the king all banks will be history Verse One Banks are stingy Banks are greedy They steal from the needy Banks never give but they love to take If your friend is a bank He will rob you before you wake Only fools bail out the banks Because I will rather take my money They sold me worthless shares when my day was sunny With the hope that one day I will lick from the bank’s honey Now my day is rainy and I don’t think it is funny I would never buy those shares I rather buy an Easter bunny Only foolish kings bail out the banks I rather bail out a pauper The economy is going bad While my people are left to suffer Beware of the banks and the evil that they do Today it is me but tomorrow it may be you Chorus Banks! Banks! Let us all do away with banks And their dirty tricks and their silly pranks Banks! Banks! They mean very little to me If I was the king all banks will be history If I was the king all banks will be history If I was the king all banks will be history Verse Two Bank! Banks! They can never be your friend Today they are collecting your money But you are broke They say see you later Sunny Beware! Beware! Beware! When a bank tells you sign here They will take everything you have Including your underwear Is it your bit of filthy magic? To trade with a bank may be tragic Shrewd little goldsmith demanding for gold And any item of value Or anything he could see or hold Bald headed money lenders demanding for a pound of flesh You can take the meat from his cheek But remember that no blood must spill Banks don’t care they will rather kill Take off his damn head off with a sharp edged steel Deducting money from my account bill bill bill Banks are the biggest thieves because the love to steal Banks destroy the economy and they never heal Banks will charge you money for a rotten potato peel Banks! I hate banks! They say can I borrow you some money I say no thanks Banks! Banks! Let us all do away with banks And their dirty tricks and their silly pranks Banks! Banks! They mean very little to me If I was the king all banks will be history If I was the king all banks will be history If I was the king all banks will be in misery
