Well, willful waste makes woeful want My mother's words, they still do haunt And if you've got it, by God, flaunt it That's what I love about free markets (Gotta love free markets, yeah!) That's why what I willfully waste I never do decide in haste To keep my public image chaste That's why I own a media conglomerate (Doesn't everybody?) Everybody wants something for nothing (Doesn't everybody?) But there's a few who want it all (That would be us) Study the pieces on the game board, boys Run them down until they all fall Some kingdoms crumble, empires fall Some economies briefly stall Sufficiently to make folks crawl That's where I come in and save the day (Save us, J.P. Morgan) Don't be concerned that maybe I Just might be motivated by More than an altruistic eye Towards public welfare Everybody wants something for nothing But I think I deserve it all (That would be you, J.P.) All of the pieces are in their places in this game But somebody's gotta fall (Show us your federal reserve, J.P.) Speculation is the rage 'n' Panic spreads like a contagion Any immigrant or working poor will do We could always just blame the Jews I'll take the banking system first And leave the media to Hearst Let Rockefeller quench his thirst on oil, boys They ain't making any more Everybody wants something for nothing A few of us could take it all If 1907 ain't the end game, brother, Another century and it could fall Squarely into our laps, men.
