Funny, but 10, 12 years ago I seemed like a left wing loony for my
Keynesianness, and belief that the ideas of Alan Greenspan were wrong,
wrong, wrong. I haven't changed, but a lot of other folks sure have.
Now, I seem darned near mainstream.

Mayday
Hey, Chairman Greenspan,
How do you sleep at night?
Can your dreams be gentled?
Is profit always right?
Mayday!
There ain't no lifeboats
We'd better save ourselves
Mayday!
Capitalism
Like an old Missouri mule
Strong and hard working
It'll kick as surely too.
Hey, Captain Greenspan
How do you sleep at night?
No, you're not mistaken
I am tryin' to pick a fight.
Are we on unsinkable
America today?
In case of the unthinkable,
Who's gonna have to pay?
Mayday!
Put out a mayday
We're callin' mayday
