Jeff Connelly Poet Lyric

Insiders

Prophets of this modern age
Find the Tao on a business page
Seek a broker instead of a sage
Cause you know they make more profits

Three wise men without a clue
Wearing Jerry Garcia ties and three piece suits
Say they don't know just don't give a hoot
Cause you know they make good profits

You won't face facts and you can't look back
Gotcher backs against the Wall
Things are what they are you're a falling star
But your wish is to take us all

A Humpty Dumpty economy
Tweetle Dumb bureaucracy
A nursery rhyme mentality
Once upon a time

Mr. Pennsylvania Avenue
Didn't know what to do
Held his breath til he turned blue
If you're caught only then it's a crime

You won't face facts and you can't look back
Gotcher backs against the Wall
Things are what they are you're a falling star
But your wish is to take us all

All all all all all all all all...
