lyrics

A man a man a word a word
that's what they say, that's what I heard
Quid pro quo, well what do you know
the truth is out
how you ran that show
or it ran you
without a clue
juicing and cruising
Value at risk, hedged your bet
ain't it sad

What do you know, what do you care

A man a man, a word a word
that's what they say, that's what I heard
sooner or later, the truth will be out
and the press uncovers what it's all about
no way to regain your value at risk
fixing the rate by your secret trader
send him to Paris, send him to Rome
no fingerprints, no alibi
remember to look under the stone.

A road a road a way a way
that's what I saw
to get us out of here
the sooner the better,
as long as the rates are shattere

A plan a plan we can we can
we should we could
if it is understood,
ethical committee
telling us what is bad, what is good
