BLACK MONDAY

BLACK MONDAY (parody with apologies to Alannah Myles)

Economy in the middle of a dry spell
Kennybunkport on the Agenda up high
Obama's dancin' with debt on his shoulder
The sun is settin' fior the USA in the sky
The boy could sink, knew not how to move,
Always wanting more, he grew the debt by a factor of four

Black Monday and that little boy's smile
Black Monday with that slow business style
A Keynesian religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black Monday if you please

Up in DC, the panic's like a heatwave
White lightening, bound to drive you broke
Obama's baby's in the heart of every factory closure
"Dow Jones" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way it moved, it was a sin, so bitter and true
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

Black Monday and that put-holder's smile
Black Monday with that slow suicide style
A Keynesian religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black Monday if you please

Every word of every lie that he sang was for you
In a flash all our cash was gone, it happened so soon, what could you do?

Black Monday and that put-holder's smile
Black Monday with that slow suicide style
A Keynesian religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black Monday if you please
