Wall Strippers & Naked Short Selling

Wall Strippers & Naked Short Selling

The economy is now a strip club
As Wall Strippers work the poles.
But we’re the ones getting stripped this time
From bets Wall Strippers sold.

The Strippers parade on decaying stage
With thong rule regulations.
Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers
Bring thoughts of regurgitation.

The traders froth in the shadows
And raise markers as they’re yelling.
Hedge funds plunge with tinier thongs,
It’s just about naked short selling.

9 million trades on hedge funds
With no delivery in five days,
Bring phantom stocks that drop other markets
And traders get a raise.

Seven hundred billion is thrown
To the Wall Strippers who want more,
But banks won’t loosen lending belts;
They’re not stripping for a class war.

The shadows in the strip club
Are stark with criminal shares,
The Federal thong hangs by a thread
But they got us by the short hairs.
