Lieberman's Big Banks
Joe sings the Kander & Ebb tune
"Nowadays" from "Chicago"
(Isn't it good, isn't it grand….)

Aren't we good? Aren't we grand?
Aren't we great? Aren't we swell?
Aren't we a joy? Aren't we
    too big to stop?

With graft everywhere, cons everywhere,
Scams everywhere, frauds everywhere,
Swaps everywhere,
    how could we flop?

Citi knows the dough it's giving
    back is fired employee dough,
Like BofA will use to find
    and hire a CEO.

What if we're touts? What if we're gyps?
What if we're cheats/ What if we're thieves?
What if we're crooks?
    No way we'll stop.

Citi knows the dough it's giving
    back is fired employee dough,
Like BofA will use to hire
    and pay its CEO.

Why are we flush? Why are you broke?
Why are we rich? Why are you poor?
Why are you such an easy touch
Whenever I, the great Joe Lieberman,
    flip-flop?
