BANANA HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC

(America the Beautiful)

WilliamBanzai7

O beautiful and spacious lies,

For fraudulent Wall Street gains,

With pinstriped swindling tragedies

Above your 401k! America! America!

God won't shed these disgraceful thieves

And crown those hoods--the Banksta Brotherhood 

From scheme to ponzi scheme!

O beautiful thievery and politico crony lies

Whose two faced disgrace

A thoroughfare of lobbying and greed

Across the populist wilderness!

America! America!

God hang every corrupt and crony fiend,

Confirm thy soul without self-control,

Their liberties are obscene!

O beautiful for heroes screwed

In bungled economic strife

Those who love themselves above their land

And moral hazard more than life!

America! America!

May God's work Goldman refine

Till all success be Fat Catness

And bailout gains divine!

O beautiful for patriots reamed

That sees beyond the tears of subprime slime

Thine asset bubbles gleam

Undimmed by quantitative legerdemain!

America! America!

God won't shed this disgrace from thee

And crown those hoods-- the Banksta Brotherhood

One big den of pinstriped Wall Street thieves!
