The Lyrics

I'm 41 and I ride a mountain bike everywhere. And when you can't afford the price of gas, so will you!
Oil prices are out of this world.
Can you buy gas and make ends meet?
Interest rates are high, money's tight.
They're crashing on Wall Street.
Crashing at Citi Bank, down at T. Rowe Price at Golman Sachs.

Yes they'll be panic, great panic.
They'll be panic and despair.
They'll be be people selling and no one buying,
Crashing on Wall Street.

Oh, who cares if you're a millionaire,
You're gonna lose your underwear.
It's in short supply now you hurl.
Oil prices are out of this world.
They'll be crashing on Wall Street.

It's an education in speculation.
Hang yourself from a bedsheet.
They'll be chickens in pots and cars in garages.
Crashing on Wall Street.

JP Morgan Chase, Deutsche Bank and CIBC now.
Can't forget Merrill Lynch.

Yes they'll be panic, great panic.
They'll be panic and despair.
They'll be people selling and no one buying,
Crashing on Wall Street.

Oh, who cares if you're a millionaire,
You're gonna lose your underwear.
It's in short supply now you hurl.
Oil prices are out of this world.
They'll be crashing on Wall Street.

Raymond James down in flames,
They're crashing on Wall Street.
There was no warning sign, out of time;
They're crashing on Wall Street.
Once again it's deja vu, out of the blue.

I have a solution. Check my song No Driving with Hooch, Ma'm - unfortunately, the politicians don't like if I pump 555 liters of ethanol in my fuel tank.
