Con Evil 9 - First Impression

Live Version Video

Cold and misty morning, I heard a warning borne in the air
About an age of HELOCs where no one had a reason to care,
Where late the loans have withered, bankrupt owners shivered, in the cold
Now their faces captured in the lenses of the jackals for gold.
I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there.

Suffering in silence, they've all been waylaid.
They tempt them and they cheat them, in a salesman-like way,
Praying for survival at the end of the day.
There is no compassion for those who strayed.
I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there.

There must be someone who can set them free:
To help them borrow from a mortgagee
To help the feckless and the poor FB
To ask what's left of humanity.
Can't you see
Can't you see
Can't you see.

I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there;
To help them borrow
To make then borrow
Blight tommorrow!

Step inside! Hello! We've the most amazing show
You'll enjoy it all we know
Step inside! Step Inside!

We've got thrills and shocks, supersonic falling stocks.
Leave your Hummers at the box
Come Inside! Come Inside!
Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!
See the show!

Left behind the bars, rows of Brokers heads in jars
and a mortgage on a car
Spectacular! Spectacular!

If you follow me there's a speciality
some tears for you to see
Misery, misery,
Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!
See the show!

Next upon the bill is our House upon the Hill
We've a spokesman who's a shill
What a thrill! What a thrill!
And not content with that, with our hands behind our backs,
We pull Greenspan from a hat,
Get into that! Get into that!
Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!
See the show!

Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends
We're so glad you could attend
Come inside! Come inside!
There behind the glass is a record unsurpassed
Be careful as you pass.
It won't last! Move along!

Come inside, the show's about to start
Guaranteed to blow your bank apart
Rest assured you'll get your money's worth
The greatest show in Heaven, Hell or Earth.
You've got to see the show, it's about to blow
You've got to see the show, it's rock and roll...

Soon the Realtor Queen with the Subprime Loan Machine
Will perform on guillotine
What a scene! What a scene!
Next up on broadband will you please extend a hand
to Bernanke's Ragtag Band
Sell some land, take a stand.
Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!
See the show!

Performing on a stool we've a sight to make you drool
Handcuffed brokers and a mule
Keep it cool. Keep it cool.
We would like it to be known the exhibits that were shown
were exclusively our own,
All our own. All our own.
Come and see the show! Come and see the show! Come and see the show!
See the show!
