Can anyone lend me ten billion quid? Why do you look so glum? Was it something I did? So I caused a second great depression, what can I say I guess I got a bit carried away If I say I'm sorry will you give me the money?
You know me The complete banker in a black Bentley Sweet Samantha riding next to me Oh how I hanker for the good old days When I was free The complete banker in my Armani Before the rancour and disharmony Well money makes the world go round And round and down the drain
We went to war on the floor of the exchange To all of us it was just a big game But God I loved it, making a profit from somebody's loss I never knew exactly whose money it was And I did not care as long as there was lots for me
The complete banker in a black Bentley Sweet Samantha riding next to me Oh how I hanker for the good old days When I was free, The complete banker in my Armani Before the anger and the inquiries Well money makes the world go round And round and down the drain
We'll learn the lessons, run tests and analyse We'll crunch the numbers cause the numbers never lie Maybe this recession is a blessing in disguise We can build a much much bigger bubble the next time And leave the rest to clean our mess up
Well that's just me The complete banker in a black Bentley Margaret Thatcher riding next to me Oh how I hanker for the good old days When I was free I'm the complete banker I'm a conscience-free malignant cancer on society And one day you'll let your guard down And I'll come round again
