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
