How Dare You?
Who'll we replace Obama with?

How dare you, judges, rip us off?
Letting banks buy Congress off
To feed their piggies at the trough
Meanwhile you all sit back and scoff
Claiming that we're better off…
How dare you?

Who'll we replace Obama with,
That lobbyists aren't cozy with,
To get bank rescues over with
Preferably all forthwith?

Perhaps somebody who has balls?
Who's not concerned with curtain calls?
Who won't send Geithner to placate
The bankers we've all come to hate
Praying they'll cooperate
And not overcompensate
Those we replace Obama with?

Bushie's syntax? Not that good.
Obama sounded like he could.
And even though we've knocked on wood
Where's the stuff he said he would?

What a time to rip us off,
When none of us are that well off,
Nor sure who we'll replace Obama with…
How dare you?
