First the Market was bull
Then the Market was bear
When they reached for the money
It just wasn't there
And the savings and loans
Are all over their heads
Even thought they won't lie down
I still think they're dead
And it's 1929
In my mind
I can't spare a dime
Cause it's 1929 in my mind
If they say that it's so
When they know that it's not
They can keep what they stole
And steal what they've got
Then it's 1929
In my mind
I can't spare a dime
Cause it's 1929 in my mind
1989
