A chorus of protesters with the Save the American Dream campaign dropped by a Goldman Sachs holiday party last week, where they sang the following song:
Goldman, the Two-Faced i-BankAnd on a related note, check out Robert Reich's short piece pondering the way out for homeowners who are drowning in mortgage debt.--The Editors
(to the tune of Rudolph, the Red-Nose Reindeer)You know Merrill and Morgan and Lehman and Citi
J.P. and Wamu and Bofa and Barclay's
But do you recall?
The most famous i-bank of all?Goldman the two-faced i-bank
Gave out very shoddy loans
And if you ever saw them
You'd wonder how its profits roseAll of the other i-banks
Lost billions on the sub-prime game
How did that crooked Goldman
Come away with all the fame?Because it knew how bad it was
And it stoked the flames
At the same time that it made bad loans
It bet that folks would lose their homesRight now it's bonus season
And we're shouting "don't you see!
Goldman the two-faced i-bank
Pay now or pay in history!"
