Arcade Fire - Martha Stewart lyrics

Our Christmas bonus Was spared with patience While men who owned us Took paid vacations They tried to clone us To fight deflation They should have blown us What? For reparations Instead we eavesdropped Found secret files Of bad accounting In shredded piles As pressure mounted So did denials Evidence will drag those criminals To face the man in trial Good-bye Martha my dear! Go Away Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management. What? For all those who work honestly Building up our economy Some bosses take the liberty To take our money happily Though what's up falls eventually They tore down our economy Lock them up in a penitentiary Hide the key for half a century Good-bye Martha my dear! Go Away Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management Captains go down with their ships Not jump ship as they go down All these pricks stood back And watched their companies drown They paid us with junk bonds Sold stocks before the sale But they failed! All Hail! To Chief Execs going to jail! Good-bye Martha my dear! Go Away Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management. What? Taking down upper management Good-bye Martha my dear! Go Away
