haven parade - the big short lyrics

[intro]
you know what, right now, breaking news here
stocks are tanking because of the crisis on wall street

[verse 1]
look, uh
when the banks came down in ’08
the economy fell like snowflakes
crashed, collapsed
similar to third world buildings in an earthquake
on one end lives the unaccountable
on the other end, the irresponsible
but who’s to blame
when everyone in the game, is just chasing the pot of gold
as elusive as it might be
obsession with the currency
psychopathic. financial hazards
humanity lacking true empathy
shake a couple hands (are you in with me?)
split two billion into two cd’s
that’s upon riches upon riches
and the rest of the world is left emptily

[chorus]
ring around the masses
pocket full of advances
cash in, cash
we all fall down
[verse 2]
check out my net investments
it’s gross what i’m collecting
if profits are the incentive
then my acquisitions are infected
facing a recession
houses are being leveraged
but what does it matter if her diamonds are iridescent
benedict eggs for breakfast
lightly topped with some capers
kinder chocolate croissants
and sparkling refreshments
let me make a suggestion
please don’t have any resentment
but look up at my penthouse
and look at what you’re renting

[chorus]
ring around the masses
pocket full of advances
cash in, cash
we all fall down

[outro]
each night millions of americans worry about where they will sleep, and where they’re next meal will come from
homelessness is not a new problem in this country
and for many it brings to mind images of drug addicts, runaways, and veterans
but this current economic crisis has created a new population of homeless
hundreds of thousands of families who were living the american dream, have fallen into an american nightmare
