[length: 03:43]
[00:07.05]Can anyone lend me ten billion quid?
[00:14.18]Why do you look so glum? Was it something I did?
[00:21.07]So I caused a second great depression, what can I say
[00:28.46]I guess I got a bit carried away
[00:35.17]If I say I’m sorry will you give me the money?
[00:39.27]You know me
[00:40.92]The complete banker in a black Bentley
[00:44.61]Sweet Samantha riding next to me
[00:48.25]Oh how I hanker for the good old days
[00:53.34]When I was free
[00:55.18]The complete banker in my Armani
[00:58.55]Before the rancour and disharmony
[01:02.49]Well money makes the world go round
[01:05.82]And round and down the drain
[01:11.88]We went to war on the floor of the exchange
[01:17.93]To all of us it was just a big game
[01:24.98]But God I loved it, making a profit from somebody’s loss
[01:32.35]I never knew exactly whose money it was
[01:39.53]And I did not care as long as there was lots for me
[01:45.27]The complete banker in a black Bentley
[01:48.87]Sweet Samantha riding next to me
[01:52.35]Oh how I hanker for the good old days
[01:57.96]When I was free,
[01:59.86]The complete banker in my Armani
[02:03.15]Before the anger and the inquiries
[02:06.66]Well money makes the world go round
[02:10.12]And round and down the drain
[02:19.59]We’ll learn the lessons, run tests and analyse
[02:26.53]We’ll crunch the numbers cause the numbers never lie
[02:33.55]Maybe this recession is a blessing in disguise
[02:40.35]We can build a much much bigger bubble the next time
[02:47.58]And leave the rest to clean our mess up
[02:51.73]Well that’s just me
[02:53.22]The complete banker in a black Bentley
[02:56.84]Margaret Thatcher riding next to me
[03:00.30]Oh how I hanker for the good old days
[03:05.78]When I was free
[03:07.67]I’m the complete banker
[03:09.32]I’m a conscience-free malignant cancer on society
[03:14.53]And one day you’ll let your guard down
[03:18.22]And I’ll come round again
