Well I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won
Then you flew your lear jet up to Nova Scotia



Maybe it was Ann's horse that won.

rMoney, get away
Get a good job with more pay and your O.K.

rMoney it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think I'll buy me a football team

rMoney get back
I'm all right Jack keep your hands off my stack.

rMoney it's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the hi-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet

rMoney it's a crime
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie

rMoney so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're
giving none away

Picture yourself in the living room
Your pipe and slippers set out for you
I know you think that it ain't too far
But I, I hear the call of a lifetime ring
Felt the need to get up for it
Oh, you cut out the middleman
Get free from the middleman

You got no time for the messenger
Got no regard for the thing that you don't understand
You got no fear of the underdog
That's why you will not survive


I want to forget how conviction fits
But can I get out from under it?
Can I get it out of me? Oh, oh, oh
It can't all be wedding cake
It can't all be boiled away
I try but I can't let go of it
Can't let go of it

Uh-huh 'cause you don't talk to the water boy
And there's so much you could learn but you don't want to know
You will not back up an inch ever
That's why you will not survive


The thing that I tell you now
It may not go over well
And it may not be photo-op
In the way that I spell it out

But you won't hear from the messenger
Don't wanna know 'bout something that you don't understand
You got no fear of the underdog
That's why you will not survive, right!

Vulture Capitalists seem to find out earlier
How to steal money with just a smile
To be a filthy rich man is all they desire
They'll buy out a company and do it with style

Late at night, their big old house #6 gets lonely
I guess every form of refuge has its price
So instead they just sit there, planning on their very next heist.

You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
You thought by now no one would care
And the thought of your tax returns only fill you with fear.


On the other side of town voters are waiting
For you to admit how many jobs you really did steal
President Obama's surrogates keep on telling
That your story about Bain just ain't real.

You can't hide your lyin eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Romney, you can't hide your lyin' eyes

Though the one with Romney's face on the Tommy movie poster, I'm not so sure if that's satire or sacrilege!

Romney:

On the dry and dusty campagin,
The nights we spend apart alone.
I need to get back home to cool, cool Bain.
I can't sleep and I lay and I think,
The night is hot and black as ink.
Oh God, I need a drink of cool, cool Bain.
