Ode to Keynesians.


They say that the highest calling is to be a good consumer
To satisfy your appetites, always keeping in good humor
But I heard something that, perhaps, may be just a rumor
The good times, they're comin' to an end
Yeah, the good times, they're comin' to an end

They say to pay more taxes is my patriotic duty
Convert my hard earned money into bureaucratic booty
Well you'll have to forgive me if that makes my kind of moody
'cause the good times, they're comin' to an end
Yeah, the good times, they're comin' to an end

I just read about some fat cat who got a bonus yesterday
They say that he deserves it, in addition to his pay
He must be well connected, that's all I can say
'cause the good times, they're comin' to an end
Yeah, the good times, they're comin' to an end

I just watched a video of a Phillie demonstration
Showed a young man being dragged off to the nearest precinct station
Seems his t-shirt art offended citizens of Obama nation
Yeah, the good times, they're comin' to an end,
cantcha' see...
The good times, they're comin' to an end
