Hey Mr. Wall Street
Dirty greedy money man
You've been running wild so long
Gorging on all what you can
Never thought you'd have to pay
But take a look around today
There's a guillotine on Wall Street
We all like money
And we know you got to live
But you took more than your share
Comes a time you have to give
If you can't control your greed
We'll step on in to fill that need
There's a guillotine on Wall Street
First it starts out peaceful and nothing gets done
Then there will be unions and nothing will get done
Third you’ll take some legal actions dishing out more dirt
Fourth there’ll be a skirmish and someone will get hurt
Less than one percent has
More than all the middle class
And the poor all added up
Now we’ve hit critical mass
Listen to our marching feet
Gathering on your precious street - There's a guillotine on Wall Street
A watershed event sparks our meager ranks to grow
While you hold on tight to your favored status quo
Our peaceful demonstration becomes an angry mob
A mob won’t care about the facts they focus on one job
They’ll pull your from your Ivory Tower
Your castle high, your pile of cash
They’ll kneel you down like Marie Antionette
You’ll lose your wig, and all your stash
You keep playing all the same
But you can’t win this numbers game
There's a guillotine on Wall Street
Like all good protests run amok
Intelligentsia’s next to go
Cause they understand this mess
They’ll have to end up like the rest
All because you took too much
You let yourself get out of touch
There's a guillotine on Wall Street

Mormons Are A Cult
03:16

Dear God please protect us
From weirdo religions
In this nation under God
I was lost but now I'm found
Cause Pastor Rick Jefress
Has cleared away the fog
The Mormons are nothing but a cult
Fourteen million weirdos
Fomenting revolt
The Mormons believe in Jesus Christ
They like him oh so very much
They believe he came back twice
That's why the Mormons are a cult
Romney must be thwarted
Cause he isn't Christian
So Rick Perry gets the nod
So says Jefress and I agree
Each person can vote for
Their own favorite slob
But if it comes down to
A race against Obama
Jefress chooses Mormon Mitt
That makes no sense at all
Barack's a good Christian
Unless there’s something else in play
Does anyone smell …?

Panic In The White House
03:22

Obama’s keeping his composure
He sticks with gentlemanly ways
The problem is nobody’s listening
Unless you scream instead of say
Here comes that good ole boy James Carville
He’s known for stirring up the pot
He says now boys I got some ideers
So come on and give it at shot
Panic in the White House
Don’t know which way that they should go
Panic in the White House
Surely soon some heads are gonna roll
Barack was tuned to the same channel
And thought that it wise to act more tough
He’ll never be a Newt Gingrich
He’ll tax the rich and hope it’s enough
Now things are starting to get ugly
We’re in a shitstorm war of words
It doesn’t matter how we got here
We need a hero to clean up the turds
Panic in the White House
Don’t know which way that they should go
Panic in the White House
Surely soon some heads are gonna roll
I understand the Right’s connection
Of coddling the wealthy class
They do it for their own protection
While leaving us out on our ass
I think the voters are enchanted
That someday they’ll be in the dough
Then they can stop paying taxes
It might come true but the odds are low
