LOL, I love this re-write of the American Pie lyrics, by a Zero Hedge poster.
Enjoy!
A long long time ago
I can still remember how
The greenback used to make me smile
And no matter how hard it seemed
i knew i could reach the americam dream
And i would be happy for a while
But the tv made me shiver
With every headline they'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his wookie bride
Reggie touched me deep inside
The day the dollar died
So
[Chorus]
Bye, bye dollar hedgenomy
Drove my prius to the pawn shop but they wouldnt buy
And them good ole boys were sending stocks high
Singin' this'll be the day that I buy
This'll be the day that I buy
Did you stop the south stream line?
And believe that every thing is still fine
If the whitehouse tells you so?
Do you believe in shock and awe?
Marie Harf, and that other whore?
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Well, i know its your coup in Ukraine
'Cause I saw you send in McCain
Nuland kicked off her shoes
and said hey just f* the EU
I was a isolated Russian president
My economy you tried to dent
But I knew you were out of luck
The day the dollar died
I started singin'
[Chorus]
Bye, bye dollar hedgenomy
Drove my prius to the pawn shop but they wouldnt buy
And them good ole boys were sending stocks high
Singin' this'll be the day that I buy
This'll be the day that I buy
Now, for eight years we've been on our own
And wall street grows fat on a QE
But, that's not how it used to be
When stock markets were allowed to crash
and people still had faith in cash
And a voice that came from you and me
Oh and while the king was playin golf
Chinese Yuan stole his paper crown
The move they made was bold
they backed it up with gold
And while yellen read a book on keynes
The people were on their knees
And we were trying not to freeze
The day the dollar died
We were singin'
[Chorus]
Bye, bye dollar hedgenomy
Drove my prius to the pawn shop but they wouldnt buy
And them good ole boys were sending stocks high
Singin' this'll be the day that I buy
This'll be the day that I buy
