Fraud & Conspiracy
I think the world was shocked to see
The lack of corporate honesty
These pillars of society
Brought down by old-fashioned greed
But will the guilty really pay,
Or weasel out the usual way?
Fraud and conspiracy
Brought the market to its knees
Stop corporate piracy
It’s an ethical fallacy
Are we serving justice when they walk?
These settlements are one big crock
They’ll pay a fine but do no time
The punishment don’t fit the crime
Some lesser minion gets the rap
The mastermind gets a slap
Fraud and Conspiracy
Brought the Country to its knees
An excess in hypocrisy
An all-for-me mentality
Scandals of a massive size
Pinstripe outlaws in disguise
Teach them bout the world confined
Wearing stripes of a different kind
Forget the prison country clubs
Tennis courts and whirlpool tubs
Ensure they give back all their riches
10 to life being prison bitches
This sad tale is far from through
Until we find out what they knew
The corporate books are still askew
This enema is overdue
Fraud and Conspiracy
Brought the Country to its knees
Misplaced securities
Can the public ever trust,
Or will the market further bust?
Fraud and Conspiracy
Brought the Country to its knees
An excess in hypocrisy
It’s an ethical fallacy
