Never in the history of mankind have so few been rewarded so handsomely for being so greedy and incompetent and for screwing up so big time. Do we need anymore evidence that unregulated capitalism is a disaster ? From a posting on the Guardian's news that UK banks are to be bailed out too (to the tune of 50 billion pounds)... ATTILA THE STOCKBROKER CLEANS UP THE CITY I was a clerk there: Ive seen the greed How wealth and power eat hope and need Now theyre eating each other but theyre still screaming ‘No interference – I start dreaming… ‘Self regulation? OK, I say ‘Im a stockbroker – lets do it my way And thats the beginning of this little ditty: Attila the Stockbroker cleans up the City! Each gets a red nose so everybody knows Just who they are and where all our money goes No more speculate, no more accumulate - This is a lifestyle were going to eradicate Dealers on the floor meet squads of the poor saying ‘Heres the twist, Oliver – we want more Work for us or we take the whole kitty Attila the Stockbroker cleans up the City! ‘Hello Mr. Hedge Fund, have a cup of tea. Financial Services Authority? Me. Youre a parasite on the population Convicted of criminal speculation Time to atone for a life so greedy - Twenty years working for the poor and needy. Want to appeal? Try the Central Committee… Attila the Stockbroker cleans up the City! Morning Mr Banker, youre in for a shock. Were taking much more than just Northern Rock! All the banks nationalised – Stock Exchange too. Utilities, railways, grabbed from the few. Mr Billionaire? You just lost your money. (Hey there, Chelsea fan, isnt that funny!) The futures brown. The futures shitty. So Attila the Stockbroker cleans up the City! Capitalism is a John Cleese parrot. Lets give it stick and not a single carrot! Bollocks to the dealer, the broker, the lender - Social justice back on the agenda Radical stylin going on here Smoked Mammon sarnies and really good beer For the poor no fear, for the rich no pity When Attila the Stockbroker cleans up the City! www.attilathestockbroker.com |
