The Banker's Crime
I want my letter signed by you
Before I fix mine on your dotted line
A toast to those of you untrue
Here's to Prison-time for the Banker's crime
Everyone else, you may wanna get
It's simple protection, it's fair and legit
Why do it?, Why do it?, Here's why I'd do it
If this shit happens too often, why risk it?
What else will you have, the day that you find
One of them suits went on to dupe you
Do you know some chaps have a pen and rubber
That erases written ink, right out of view
What else will you have the day that you find
'Copies' of letters you wouldn't have signed
So careful my friend, or one day you will find
The Vultures will wait when you don't have the time
I want my letter signed by you
Before I fix mine on your dotted line
A toast to those of you untrue
Here's to Prison-time for the Banker's crime
I wrote this now cos I see, I see I was
Handed over to a rakish swine
Surely they let him step out of line
The first time they saw him turn water to wine
I wrote this now cos I see, I see I was
Handed over to a rakish swine
Clearly they cheered, as he stepped out of line
The SECOND time he turned water to wine.
I want my letter signed by you
Before I fix mine on your dotted line
A toast to those of you untrue
Here's to Prison-time for the Banker's crime
