Markets go up, Markets go down
Nobody knows it’s all overblown
To the moon it goes, that’s what they say
Pushing speculation, each and every day
Play the Casino, the house always wins
Rigging the game, just for fucking grins
In for a penny, in for a pound,
Ready for a miss and that sucking sound?
Speculate, Speculate
Now’s the time to tempt your fate
Speculate, Speculate
Up and up at an endless rate
Speculate, Speculate
Hoping the Fed inflates
Speculate, Speculate
Did you really take the bait?
Growth über Alles, the corporate sprawl
Resource depletion, until we hit the wall
Socialized losses, privatized gains
Corporate greed, completely insane
Stratospheric highs, another record close
How high it goes, nobody knows
Buying the dip, how can you miss?
Until the day it dies and takes a fucking piss
No time to double down, ready to be drowned
Beaten to the ground, shut it all down!
Speculate, Speculate
Propping up the puppet state
Speculate, Speculate
Up and up at an endless rate
Speculate, Speculate
Consequences aggregate
Speculate, Speculate
Can you really keep the Faith?
The rich get richer,
the poor get poorer,
Inequality!
Debts through the roof
Prices on the rise
Inequality!
The interest you get,
The interest you pay,
Inequality!
Handouts for the rich
Austerity for the poor
Inequality!
The balance sheet grows, new all-times highs
Debt doesn’t matter, that’s how money dies
Driving up prices, raging inflation
Resources soar, consumer frustration
Technocratic babble, the Fed is inane
The unelected power, we see that money reigns
Playing with fire, ignoring the signs
We’ve lost the skills, to read between the lines
Waiting for the bounce, or ready to melt down?
Beaten to the ground, shut it all down!
Speculate, Speculate
Barbarians are at the Gate
Speculate, Speculate
Down and down at a rapid rate
Speculate, Speculate
Consequences aggregate
Speculate, Speculate
How long until we seal our Fate?
The rich get richer,
the poor get poorer,
Inequality!
Debts through the roof
Prices on the rise
Inequality!
Politicians bought,
with money for power
Inequality!
Handouts for the rich
Austerity for the poor
Inequality!
