Lyrics for those who like to sing-along:

They’re blaming it on sub-prime
They’re spending all the TARP funds
I’m down to my last dime

Wall Street Flop

Our confidence is failing
401k’s is ailing
Have to sell my kidney

Wall Street Flop

Hey Ho, Let’s Go
Spend another trillion.
Will it work?  I don’t know.
They’re all levered up and ready to blow

Some think inflation
Others day deflation
What about hyperstagflation

Wall Street Flop

Interest rates are zero
Unemployment’s rising
Depression is on our minds

Wall Street Flop

Hey Ho, Let’s Go
Start another war now
Will it work?  I don’t know.
They’re nuked up and ready to go

The Government is bailing
Bonuses still paying
One giant Ponzi scheme

Wall Street Flop

Madoff lost billions
Tent cities building.
Never mind the Bachelor’s on

Wall Street Flop
