"Bailout Wonderland"

The opening bell rings, are you listening,
In the S&P, futures are ripping,
A beautiful sight
A bailout tonight
Living in a bailout wonderland

Gone away, is the free-market,
Here to stay, is the bailout,
Paulson sings a love son,
As citizens are dragged along,
Living in a bailout wonderland

In the meadow we can build a car czar
And pretend that he's a CEO

He'll say: Am I qualified?
We'll say: No man,
But you can do the job
When you're in town

Later on, we'll keep borrowing
As we dream, by Obama
To face unafraid
The bailouts we made,
Living in a bailout wonderland

In the meadow we can build a car company
And pretend that its not run by clows
We'll have lots of fun driving their cars
Until all the factories break down

Getting bailed out, ain't it thrilling,
Though your spine gets a chilling,
We'll lever and buy, the Barney Frank way,
Living in a bailout wonderland

"Dashing through Detroit"

Dashing through Detroit,
In a one horsepower Ford,
Off to the rescue they go,
Bailouts all the way

Engines on the hybrids ring,
Making spirits bright,
What fun it is to drive and sing
A bailout song tonight!

Ooooh, bail us out, bail us out,
bail us all the way
Oh what relief,
It is to drive,
A bailed out Chevrolet! Hey!

A day or two ago,
I thought I'd take a ride,
And soon my transmission was shot,
But the government's on my side!

The company was lean and lank,
Misfortune seemed their lot,
Denied investment by a capitalist bank,
Their chances were all but shot!

Ooooh, bail us out, bail us out,
bail us all the way
Oh what relief,
It is to drive,
A bailed out Chevrolet! Hey!

"I'm Dreaming of Big Bailout"

I'm dreaming, of a big, bailout,
Just like the ones the socialists know,
Where the empty factories glisten,
As workers listen,
To Barney Frank, in the snow, oh oh,

I'm dreaming, of a big, bailout,
With every Government check they write,
May your industries be bankruptcy free, all right
And may the insides of your pockets, be white...
