Magical Markets and Magical Mules
Words and music by Abel Ashes, from the album Between the Droughts and the Floods, 2019
Wall Street banks where the coke-heads play
Gambling the future from June through May
They’re fucking everybody in the USA
Crashing the economy for short-term gains
Crashing the economy for short-term gains
Tired of the bullshit, bullshit, bullshit
Talking about some bullshit
Tired of the bullshit, bullshit, bullshit
Talking about some bullshit
Journalists report the true complexity
Dumb fucking views on the blogs you read
Jumping to conclusions of conspiracy
Avoiding other facts like a bad VD
Avoiding other facts like a bad VD
Tired of the bullshit, bullshit, bullshit
Talking about some bullshit
Tired of the bullshit, bullshit, bullshit
Talking about some bullshit
“Allahu Akbar”, “Don’t tread on me”
“Jesus is Lord” and “Me, me, me”
Magical Markets won’t set you free
Neither will theocratic tyranny
Neither will theocratic tyranny
Tired of the bullshit, bullshit, bullshit
Talking about some bullshit
Tired of the bullshit, bullshit, bullshit
Talking about some bullshit
Dominionists’ and Islamists’ religious rules
Designed to keep you stupid in religious schools
The Fear of God will keep the people playing the fools
While billionaires are loading up the world like mules
Billionaires are loading up the world like mules
Billionaires are loading up the world like mules
Billionaires are loading up the world like mules
