Kiss The A*s Of The Ruling Class

"Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?" John Lydon AKA Johnny Rotten. Former front man for the Sex Pistols

A lesson learned from history
The winners make the rules
Seduce us all with promises
and play us all for fools

Rub our dicks with easy credit
so everyone gets paid
Then hide the catches in fine print
Some sleaze ball lawyers made

Conned us with their mortgage scams
Then took our jobs away
Snatching candy from a baby
When greed carried the day

Then came the great catastrophe 
The bubble had been burst
So many crooked loans they wrote
No one could reimburse 

So they cried like little b*****s
For government bailouts
As for us trapped in the middle
they just forgot about

Of course there was no over site
Heaven forbid they pay
Or are even held accountable
for bad decisions made

What happens to economies
thrown into a twister
When we all get victimized by
educated grifters

With open lying to our faces
we let them get away
without any retribution
without a judgment day

How apathetic we have become
with justice never served
We let them walk all over us
We got what we deserved

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you TL

[Relic]

I couldn't agree more. I hope this goes to number 1. I hear nothing but bad news anymore, everyone's crooked these days. It's the name of the game now and there's no mercy for anyone.

[Baby Ricochet]

That's for sure. Thank you Relic

[Rita L. Sev]

So many people bought what they couldn't afford because it was "The American Dream"... Another accurate social commentary, well penned.

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you Rita

[Marie]

Yes we did
Except it didn't happen to me; I owned my hourse before this happened. And my dughter says people who get in over their heads deserve what happens to them.

[Baby Ricochet]

Sometimes yes sometimes no. Thank you for reading Marie

Agree with your daughter to a point, Marie, till one considers government regulation is meant to protect stupid people, but in this case only sealed their fates. This one was on our government and they should've let their friends fail and bailed out the stupid people.

[Marie]

My daughter has no use for stupid people.

[Zahra]

Bitter but true, we better stop waiting for them and do something about our planet and it's future ourselves. Good one
