The Charge of the Bailout Brigade
The Charge of the Bailout Brigade


More billions, More billions,
More billions onward,
All in the valley of Debt
Rode the G20:
'Forward, the Bailout Brigade!
Charge for the banks' he said:
Into the valley of Debt
Rode the G20.

'Forward, the Bailout Brigade!'
Was there a man dismay'd ?
Not tho' the soldier knew
Some one had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to borrow & lose,
Into the valley of Debt
Rode the G20.

Junk bonds to right of them,
Junk bonds to left of them,
Defaults in front of them
Volley'd & thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Debt,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the G20.

1. "Into the valley of Debt, Rode the G20"
Ain't that the truth!
