I've been using the tune of Denomination Blues (as I heard Ry Cooder sing it). Please feel free to add some verses if any occur to you. Credit Crunch Blues Well, I'm watching the news, on my TV And they tell me that things are as bad as can be Prices going up and shares going down All in the toilet going round and round And that's all I'll tell you that's all Here comes recession I'll tell you that's all They say it's subprime lending brought the credit crunch Now maybe they see that there's no free lunch And that's all I'll tell you that's all Here comes hard times I'll tell you that's all Well the bankers dug a hole, then they fell in Now they're selling us a shovel, to dig' em out again And that's all I'll tell you that's all Here comes depression I'll tell you that's all Well the banks and markets going all to hell If they all go down, we'll be going as well And that's all I'll tell you that's all Hello, Mr Satan I'll tell you that's all They nationalise one bank, they nationalise two Don't stand still, or they might nationalise you And that's all I'll tell you that's all Here comes the Thirties I'll tell you that's all Worried 'bout your cash, keep it under the bed Need to fill a suitcase to buy a loaf of bread And that's all I'll tell you that's all Here comes inflation I'll tell you that's all Well, I've got no answers but I tell you it's true One law for them and another for you And that's all I'll tell you that's all There goes the future I'll tell you that's all |
