Banking On A Myth lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Banking On A Myth lyrics There s one guy I d like to thank / he signs the checks and leaves them blank / he s the one / he says you don t have to walk a plank / the game is rigged, go fig your / slide show tanked / and your flagship sank / so we re taking all our myths to the bank / so just don t forget who to thank / we re taking our myths to the / drinking a fifth to the / we re taking all our myths to the bank / if you could just do him this favor / although it might involve child labor / join his entourage / give him a foot massage / from Star Search to the Philharmonic / he ll get you there with Hooked on Phonics / he s the one to know / doesn t matter if you blow ? no no / in fact it s just the thing / he thinks we re needing / it s a lukewarm liquid diet / they re force feeding / when the words we use have lost their bite / now they hit you like an imaginary pillow fight / but it s all right / cause you re inside / and you re in tight / deals in commodities of the abstract sort / buys them in bulk but sells them short / talent, genius, love even signs of affection / he floods the market there s no price protection / and when his master plan is unfurled / there stands a handsome bid on the weather systems of the world song lyrics
