The Lyrics
Alan Greenspan is the head of the Federal Reserve, now
(The Federal Reserve, now the Federal Reserve)
His mission's to protect the economy and to preserve, now
(And to preserve now, and to preserve)
And lower interest rates when the indicators throw him a curve, now
And we'll have funds, funds, funds 'til Greeenspan takes our T-Bills away!
Down on Wall St. all the gurus working in the stock joints, now
(In the stock joints, now, in the stock joints)
Look for slightest hint at which policies he will anoint, now
(He will anoint, now, he will anoint)
Last week he belched and the Dow tumbled 500 points, now
And we'll have funds, funds, funds 'til Greeenspan takes our T-Bills away!
Well, it took a little while but Greenspan we are wise to you, now
(Wise to you now, wise to you)
We've protected ourselves against all the crazy things that you do, now
(Things that you do, now things that you do)
We only use our credit cards, With REAL money we are all through, now
And we'll have fun, fun, fun 'til VISA takes our plastic away!
Yes we'll have fun, fun, fun 'til VISA takes our plastic away!

Alan, you get all fours for this one. I was tempted to make it all fives simply for the achievement of making Alan Greenspan sound funny!
It was a cute song...paced very well.
