If LWIII had actually met Krugman on a train I think he would have mentioned that Paul is short and stout (like a teapot) but has purty eyes.

- a PK and LWIII fan.

@GibbonJabber- PK was sitting on the train with a laptop in front of him, you couldn't see much of his body structure.

Lordy, this is a good damn song, it's one of the best of the economic humor songs. And what a performance, exquisite.

I love LW3, it is a shame that he has never had quite the recognition that his talent deserves. He should have just as much acclaim as his children. Perhaps it's difficult to get people to take you seriously as an artist if you can't stop your sense of humour from intruding into most of your work.

I like this song. As someone equally addicted to the great sage's blog and columns, I recognise LW3's ambivalent attitude to PK's Cassandra like musings.

As long as the Republicans (and so-called "Centrist Democrats") don't use this as their anthem to continue fiddling while Rome burns, it's a *decent* song. Especially the "Paul's got that hangdog look about him" line.

Put down your Krugman and pick up your Taleb.
