lyrics

corporate greed and malfeasance
happening all the time
ceos get parting gifts
they shouldnt get a dime

its called a golden parachute
a nice graceful fall down
i say we fill their sacks with lead
and watch them hit the ground

impoverish the one percent
youre out of gas, you have to walk
now you cant pay the rent
sleeping outside on the sidewalk

nothing golden, no severance package
no special goodbye
lead parachutes dont fly
nothing to spend on special treatment
just a regular guy
had the dream now watch it die

the rich get rich the poor get poor
a wider gap each day
lets even that shit right up
make those fat cats pay

maybe then know what they did
was so fucking wrong
when the cops are poking them
saying move along

impoverish the one percent
youre out of gas, you have to walk
now you cant pay the rent
sleeping outside on the sidewalk

nothing golden, no severance package
no special goodbye
lead parachutes dont fly
nothing to spend on special treatment
just a regular guy
had the dream now watch it die

good luck
you old fuck
the old boy network is crushed
thats right
youre fired
out on your ass in the cold
