Genocide in My Portfolio
I sat down with old Joe blowTo discuss my portfolioI was going to tell himWhere to go
You support the Chinese ManWho buys his oil from SudanI think you need a new plan
You support those Chinese banksThat provide money for Sudanese tanksI think it's time you said no thanks!
He told meOver his curryEverything's fineNot to worry
I should rest at easeHe would never supportThe Sudanese
I heard you cause babiesTo be filled with wormsBut, you bailed outBear Stearns
So, I guess I'llAccept your terms
If I need to decideBetween high yieldsAnd genocideI think you knowThe way I'll go!
Why should IBe the one to payThey're all going to die anyway!
I don't want to supportMen who killBut, if I don't buySomeone else will!
Now my conscienceHas been tamedAnd I'm feelingQuite ashamed
This may sound funnyBut, I really need that money
Now that you've read this throughIf you were me, what would you do?
