Banks

I bought the house on 38th and 4th

from Wells Fargo in 1984.

And I’ve been held up

shaken down before

but I’ve never been robbed by

my name on a form.

Those banks will take all they can hold

‘til they’ve got your money

‘til they’ve got your home.

I’m just like Muley

I wander around on my own

no one around here

because everyone’s foreclosed.

All night the sirens

they whine and blow

but they’re never going to come for

the ones who took my home.

Those banks will take all they can hold

‘til they’ve got your money

‘til they’ve got your home.

Those banks will take all they can hold

‘til they’ve got your money

‘til they’ve got your home.

‘til they’ve got your money

‘til they’ve got your home.

‘til they’ve got your money

‘til they’ve got your home.
