We worry about banks that are "too big to jail"? And we worry tha NSA might divulge what they know? But if NSA would tell us who bought what and why, Those untouchable bankers might start to eat crow, And look to regulators for some kind of protection. What would transparency do to their status quo? If Big Brother's watching and not keeping secrets, It's bound to wreck havoc with someone's cash flow. So don't fault Big Brother's ability to spy. Instead let's concentrate on redirecting his aim Focus their spying on Citi, Goldman and Chase. Publicize the chicanery of their confidence game. Try trimming the fins of the banks' trickiest traders With complete transparency many will take our money and quit. Without their sharks and us as their victims Big banks will downsize and, if we're lucky, may split.
