It's the end of laissez-faire, again
We've come upon the same mistakes, but hey, we are just men
It wasn't greed, just speculation
the Greater Fool, extrapolation
Bathing in the bubbles of our wealth
It's the end laissez-faire, again
No point in pointing fingers, we do the best we can
In fact for years we did our best in making interest
More interesting we took a little chance
May I suggest an aneurysm of all capitalism
It's like a surgeon has to cut
In simply everything we've got
I think it's time we stop injections
You can't undo with right intentions
Our state of anaesthesia has slipt into amnesia,
the whole of all eurasia, injected to dysplasia,
I'm suffering aphasia, now get me to fantasia
It's the end of laissez-faire, again!?
It's the end of joy de vivre, but still je ne regret rien
In fact I don't regret a single dime
I've got a gut feeling my stocks are going to climb
So if you want to join me, get in line
And let's dive into the bubbles, dive into the bubbles
let's dive into the bubbles of our wealth

This is the second in a series of weekly album reviews published by Andrew Dubber. If you haven’t already caught it, please check out his introductory post. The world appears to be littered with bearded young men with acoustic guitars and notebooks full of verse, access to old pianos, and mournful string players. Few have … Continue reading Album of the Week: Fire on the Vine → Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 6, 2011
