    i tell you Bill I’m in despair
    i’m almost without hope
    the future’s looking so so bad
    i don’t know how i’ll cope”

    There once was a man named Barack
    Whose brain was hard as a rock
    And he said with a grin
    To the masses’ chagrin
    I’m brilliant!
    Oh My,
    What a crock

    The buck stops at the top…..

    The ATM: an ode to the financial crisis

    A woman pulls cash out of a wall
    The sirens scream as the heavens fall
    Helicopter Ben drops money from the sky
    Far away in Iraq, the soldiers die.

    The streets of San Francisco are paved with gold
    But you can’t scrape and you can’t hold
    Merchants of false hope, the bankers lie
    Like plastic surgeons, for a piece of the pie.

    Talk politics to me and whisper in my ear
    None of the things I need to fear
    Approach the gallows one and all
    The mighty dollar is about to fall.

    A billion here, a trillion there
    It matters no more, not even where!
    When every shelf in the store is bare
    Our only response is not to care.

    The people marched with purple rage
    Black, red, yellow and sage
    An eagle soared and fell out of the sky
    A tank drowned out its piercing cry.

    As darkness falls, the shadows rise
    An eerie echo of heaven dies
    The waiters count their paltry tips
    And we, in bed, shrink from the apocalypse.

    cool :-)

    have you seen this old one:

    Blair and Bush and Big John Howard
    Sophist, crook and little coward
    Sick in mind and word and deed
    slaves of fear and fame and greed
