Shawn Phillips - Blunt And Frank lyrics

Phillips Mr. Blunt and Mr. Frank Were standin' in the halls of their 7 figure bank Wonderin' what in the world They were gonna do for you I can take the brunt If you can take the flank Explained Mr. Blunt to timid Mr. Frank Wonderin' what in the world They were gonna do for you We been stealin' this money most every day And ain't nobody caught us in any way But something's tellin' me Now our goose is cooked We been raisin' our prices On the kiddies ices And the bedroom suites on the corner store Don't you think that they could go up some more? Then with everybody jivin' About how to be survivin' We could bring 'em back down again And it's gone full circle While the world bank wins again Revolution no solution To the government's illusion That the people are amusin' With the prices that we're usin' And I think that they're abusing Everything that we try to do Defamation to the nation That is drowning in inflation Immigration, isolation is a useless tabulation To the calculation that the world Is gonna want to come to you So people in distress gonna worry nonetheless 'Bout the monetary mess from an educated guess, never really blessed I think we must confess it now So people jump and shout, Everything is out And I've said what I have to say Everybody sit back While I get ready to play Where you gonna go When the people gonna know That they're ripping us off again Right back down To the same old hole we been in Bet your bottom dollar That you're really gonna holler When your friends turn you down again Not a thin dime To keep in you in your time of men
