Hysterical!

I found the following in the comments section of a Zerohedge.com article:

Sung to the tune of Piano Man

It's eight o'clock on a Monday,
the Wall Street crowd shuffles in.
There's a banker sitting next to me,
makin' love to his TARP and economic spin.

He says Ben, can you blow me a bubble?
I'm certain your academic training knows how it goes.
But it must be enormous and hazardous and I knew it complete,
When Greenspan was at the controls.

Huff huff hufffff puff puff puffffff
Huff Huffffff puff puff puff pufffff

Blow us a bubble, you're The Bernanke, man.
Blow it for us right now.
We're all in the mood for record bonuses,
and you've certainly got us kowtowed.

Now Tim at the Treasury is a friend of mine.
His endorsement allows me to issue money for free.
And he's quick with the cash or to help you evade your tax,
but there's someplace that he'd rather be.

He says, Ben, if I had a conscious it'd be killing me,
as the frown ran away from his face.
Well I'm sure I could be an oligarch,
if I could get to seriously looting this place.

Huff huff hufffff puff puff puffffff
Huff Huffffff puff puff puff pufffff

Now Lloyd is a CEO of an investment bank,
who is doing god's work for life.
And he's talking with Bernie, who is in the clink,
and probably will be until he fake dies.

And the unemployed are watching D-list celebrities dance,
as the small business man struggles for a loan.
Yes they're sharing in the gutting of the middle class,
but it's better than suffering alone.

Blow us a bubble, you're The Bernanke, man.
Blow it for us right now.
We're all in the mood for record bonuses,
and you've certainly got us kowtowed.

It's a pretty good rally for a Monday morning,
and the SEC gives me a smile.
Cause it knows that it's me that issues money for free,
to paper over the depression for a while.

And the money printer,
it churns into the midnight hour.
As the bond vigilantes respond with ire.
And they trade their paper regardless,
as they continue to extoll my great power.

Huff huff hufffff puff puff puffffff
Huff Huffffff puff puff puff pufffff

Blow us a bubble, you're The Bernanke, man.
Blow it for us right now.
We're all in the mood for record bonuses,
and you've certainly got us kowtowed.
Is that hysterical, or what?

Merry Christmas to ALL, and to all a Goodnight!
