theres a guy Id like to thank
he signs the checks and leaves them blank
hes the one
he says you dont have to walk a plank
the game is rigged, go fig your
slide show tanked, and your flagship sank
so were taking all our myths to the bank
so just dont, dont forget to thank
were taking our myths to the
drinking a fifth to the
were taking all our myths to the bank, oh no
if you could just do him this favor
although it might involve child labor
join his entourage, give him a foot massage
from Star Search to the Philharmonic
hell get you there with Hooked on Phonics
hes the one to know, doesnt matter if you blow
no, no, no, no, fact its just the thing
he thinks were needing
its a lukewarm liquid diet theyre force feeding
when the words we use have lost their bite
now they hit you like an imaginary pillow fight
oh, but its all right, yea, cause youre inside,
and youre in tight
deals in commodities of the abstract sort
buys them in bulk but then he sells it short
talent, genius, love, even signs of affection
he floods the market, theres no price protection
and when his master plan is unfurled
there stands a handsome bid
on the weather systems, of the world
