Sing a Song of Scandal

By Rick Horowitz

Start shredding the news,
We're thieving today,
And you can be a part of it:
Don't talk, don't squawk.

We're turning the screws,
We know how to play,
We understand the art of it:
Don't talk, don't squawk.

We're gonna make up all the pretty stats --
Words are cheap,
We'll be the king of the shill,
People are sheep.

The money they lose,
We're salting away,
Enjoy the horse-and-cart of it:
Don't talk, don't squawk.

If you can fake with flair,
You'll be a billionaire,
It's up to you:
Don't talk, don't squawk.

Don't talk, don't squawk...

We're gonna shake up all the gritty stats --
Hide 'em deep,
We'll have our hand in the till,
Gold in our fist,
We'll never stop
While the cops are asleep.

Those middle-class dues
We're not gonna pay,
We'll take the off-the-chart of it,
So don't you balk.

The stock's a dime a share,
But honey, we don't care!
It's what we do:
Don't talk...don't squawk!!
