lyrics

Years of Depression

T'was in the first year of the new depression
In real estate the prices fell like lead
A grumpy old dude who just got evicted
Wrote these words on his newspaper bed

All you bondholders, bankers and fuckheads in the firms
When I meet you on my street I'll see that you get burned
I'll kick your teeth on down your throats and pull them out your arse
Watch out when I get you
Years of depression will be yours
Be yours be yours
Years of depression will be yours

Soon came the second year of the depression
Numerous countries starved to feed the banks
Their populations pushed their eyes and wondered
Yet some of them heard these words from the cranks

Yet came the third year of depression
Social systems crumbled down like chalk
We sure heard the blabbering of our leaders
Fools got nothing to say and yet they talk

And now begins the fourth year of depression
Do we remain speechless longer on
Or remember that all streets are our streets indeed
And smash up rules and rulers one by one
