LYRICS

INTRO
Straight outta Wall Street comes a smart brother named Money C,
From the number one takeover company,
When the bell rings aint no stopping me,
I'll buy you out 'til I create a monopoly,

VERSE 1
I'm a criminal, and it's hysterical,
I'm at the pinnacle of society,
I'm like a deity; I am the authority, and
With anxiety, you pray to me "Please, please, please don't fire me!"
Blue Collar, White Collar for the Green Dollar,
Hands on the dollar, In God We Trust,
WSB - a company trust,
Have faith in us; we are not the Anti-Trust,
The government must be delirious,
To try to tax our bonuses; they cannot be serious,
Supreme Court Justices defended us; we are the lobbyists,
By the way, I thank them for our Stimulus.

CHORUS:
My only option is to get paid off,
You got two: get laid off, or madoff'ed,
My only mission is to play you as my pawn,
You're only wishing to move ahead from dusk 'til dawn.

VERSE 2
You worked so hard, and what's the reward?,
You got dismissed from your company, and,
Now you're pissed; you put the blame on me for your misery,
You're talking crazy like Kanye on Hennessy,
You call me selfish, but I'm a capitalist,
You're foolish; you wanna be a socialist,
Some slit their wrists if they can't handle this,
I live in bliss, and avoid unnecessary risks,
Like Bush dodges shoes, I dodge the boot,
Jumping ship in my golden parachute,
With millions in loot, I'm a banksta - a type of gangsta in a suit,
I may not shank ya, but I'll bank ya.

CHORUS:
My only option is to get paid off,
You got two: get laid off, or madoff'ed,
My only mission is to play you as my pawn,
You're only wishing to move ahead from dusk 'til dawn.

VERSE 3
This aint a game; we are the bosses,
Privatizing gains, socializing losses,
To the government we give a big shout-out,
Without guns we got billions in bailout,
We take your equity; we dodge the S.E.C,
We got our tax-free profits well-hidden overseas,
Offshore accounts in many currencies,
In the euro, yen, sterling, and even loonie,
The American dream is a Ponzi scheme,
Some file for bankruptcy; others fill the cemetery,
Rest in Peace B.I.G, Baby Baby!
Long Live A.I.G, Baby Bail Me!

CHORUS:
My only option is to get paid off,
You got two: get laid off, or madoff'ed,
My only mission is to play you as my pawn,
You're only wishing to move ahead from dusk 'til dawn.
