Their hands were so fast
as they waved goodbye.
We thought he'd be a good guy.
Why were we so high?
  
It was gone before he got there.
There wasn't any money left.
Nothing left for health care,
except for over there.
  
They called it a bailout.
Look closer!  They're not bailing, they're buying!
We'll save you IF, you let us own you.
Give us a piece and we'll keep you from dying.
  
No, No, No!  It's nothing like that.
You can still practice capitalism.
Just give us a piece.  You hear?
China has been living that way for years.
