Banks

 

The Banks only have to shout

and the Government give them a bail out

Institutions of incessant greed

take money from those in need

They operate under their own licence

to ensure their own existence

Customers have become pound signs

as we live in such mercenary times

Once before the cashier I had a name

now an eight digit number is the same

Personal service has become a joke

in banking halls that make us choke

Fat cats play the bonus game

from our money all the same

Banks no longer receive respect

as they have become an exclusive sect

They have cheated robbed and lied

now to the public they are tied

Yet their arrogance reigns supreme

as if they were a winning team

Their reputation lies in tatters

yet nothing of their rudeness matters

When did you last give a shout

and receive a Government bail out?
