Blake County - The Rent-Seeking Bankers Lament Lyrics



Blake County - The Rent-Seeking Bankers Lament Lyrics




[ Featuring the Modern Proletariats ]

Maybe a drought ruins your plot, or a flood makes it rot
Well that's a bankers celebration
They offer assistance, but just remove resistance
Well that's their fiscal foundation

They like taking all sort of risks, on things like derivatives
Well that's a shakedown by deregulation
When it comes to a margin call, gonna be all of us take the fall
Bank on bonuses for them one and all

No one likes a banker, no one likes them
No one likes a banker, they're rent-seeking
No one likes a banker, there's a good reason why
They whisper in your ear while they stab you in eye

Maybe you're leaving some inheritance, for your dependants
They got a special type of shakedown
If it turns out you're deceased, they'll increase commissions and fees
They call it superannuation

Maybe it's their advice you been heeding, still find that you're bleeding
You probably got harsher words for this song
When they come to foreclose, gonna take your car gonna take your home
And sell you another loan

No one likes a banker, no one likes them
No one likes a banker, they're rent-seeking
No one likes a banker, there's a good reason why
They whisper in your ear while they stab you in eye
