If somethin' smells fishy, you understand it wrong
Cause I make the very best rules up as we go along
It's a difficult job to milk society dry
If you wanna keep the faith you gotta change up the lie
I sell you hope, cause I know you can't see
That all the actual hope is reserved for me, cause...
What I do is I wear a suit
And I say the things that prove I'm smarter than you
Don't worry you could never understand
Cause you're not a Bankster and I am
I sell hope in a future that probably doesn't exist
You say you don't need the money, take it I insist
I give you a rate and I say jump
The tax payers can work three jobs if we hit a slump
Who says a banknote is slavery?
If you don't like it you can live in the street for free, cause...
What I do is I wear a suit
And I say the things that prove I'm smarter than you
Don't worry you could never understand
Cause you're not a Bankster and I am
I make inflation, fiscal castration
I turn your labor into a favor
I keep the treadmill set on fast
I steal the wealth you have amassed
I turn intelligence into a joke
I turn your value into smoke
I take a fee on the rest of your life
And spend it on dinner strip clubs tonight
We came up with a new multiplication trick
To help your pension funds suck our d***
Cause what I do is I wear a suit,
And say all the things that prove I'm smarter than you
So don't worry you'll never understand
Cause you're not a Bankster and I am
Let's go... If somethin' smells fishy, you understand it wrong Cause I make the very best rules up as we go along It's a difficult job to milk society dry If you wanna keep the faith you gotta change up the lie I sell you hope, cause I know you can't see That all the actual hope is reserved for me, cause... What I do is I wear a suit And I say the things that prove I'm smarter than you Don't worry you could never understand Cause you're not a Bankster and I am I sell hope in a future that probably doesn't exist You say you don't need the money, take it I insist I give you a rate and I say jump The tax payers can work three jobs if we hit a slump Who says a banknote is slavery? If you don't like it you can live in the street for free, cause... What I do is I wear a suit And I say the things that prove I'm smarter than you Don't worry you could never understand Cause you're not a Bankster and I am I make inflation, fiscal castration I turn your labor into a favor I keep the treadmill set on fast I steal the wealth you have amassed I turn intelligence into a joke I turn your value into smoke I take a fee on the rest of your life And spend it on dinner strip clubs tonight We came up with a new multiplication trick To help your pension funds suck our d*** Cause what I do is I wear a suit, And say all the things that prove I'm smarter than you So don't worry you'll never understand Cause you're not a Bankster and I am Explain Request ×
