New York Banker

 

New York Banker

(الألبوم: Agnostic Hymns & Stoner Fables - 2012)


All these years, Arkansas, teaching at the high school
How was I to know by retirement day, I'd learn a lesson so cruel?
I came to the day I had waited on just to find out all the money in our pension was gone
We invested in something called the Abacus Bond, sold to us by a New York banker

Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people
Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people

A big time banker from New York City came down south one day
Sold our people on the bond, had our money betting on some kinda home loans getting paid
Buy it they say, we were clearly told this kinda thing was even safer than gold
But later on we found out the bond we'd been sold had been set up to fail all along

Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people
Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people

We'd been set up to fail all along though none of our people had ever quite sensed it
Come to find out the bond born to fail'd been built so that banker could bet his bread against it
When the house market crashed, our retirement did too, everybody said there was nothing we could do
That banker walked off with a million or two, I'm still teaching at the high school

Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people
Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people

Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people
Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people
Good things happen to bad people, bad people, bad people
