Look, I'm very much in favor of tax cuts, but not with borrowed money. And the problem that we've gotten into in recent years is spending programs with borrowed money, tax cuts with borrowed money, and at the end of the day that proves disastrous. And my view is I don't think we can play subtle policy here.

Song: On Borrowed Time

We're all living on borrowed time,
Near the brooding sea and brine.
And we grow our primate's spine,
In every clime.

Since we crawled out from 'neath the grime,
And evolved to a species – prime.
We've been living on borrowed time,
On borrowed time.

On borrowed time. We feed and dine.
On borrowed time. In swill like swine.
On borrowed time. We sup our wine.
On borrowed time. On borrowed time!

On borrowed time. In slow decline.
On borrowed time. No season shines.
On borrowed time. No reason rhymes.
On borrowed time. On borrowed time!

We're all living on borrowed time,
Acting out our roles in mime,
As if you cannot tell that I'm confused.
We're all living on borrowed time,
And we're captured hook and line.
Enraptured lives entwine as minds unloose.

On borrowed time, by frantic chime,
Of doomsday clocks and scam sub-prime.
On borrowed time, we count the dime.
On borrowed time. On borrowed time!

From that day of Eve's droll crime,
When dull Adam su*ked the lime,
We've been living on borrowed time,
On borrowed time.

On borrowed time. By dread defined.
On borrowed time. Knee-deep in slime.
On borrowed time. We moan and whine.
On borrowed time. On borrowed time!

On borrowed time. To heights sublime.
On borrowed time. Statistics climb.
On borrowed time. Who reads the signs?
On borrowed time. On borrowed time!

Sonnet - Money

Let money be thy servant, not Master;
So, put thy wealth in use for mankind's sake;
Let progress come for fellowmen, faster;
What profits come if genuine, thou may take.

The money-needs of life on earth are small;
Money begets money and vices too;
But money cannot solve our problems all;
Let money not cause mis- conduct in you.

What use is money kept as coins and notes?
Banks lend their money so that they may grow;
Money cannot purchase all honest votes;
For money's sake, hardships, we undergo.

How many pairs of shoes, your feet will need?
Let excess money try to others feed.

That Kindness Before Death....

he said that at that moment when he knew he was about to die
he forgot those who borrowed him money,

but for those with whom he borrowed,
he kept on enumerating them, with the last request that they all shall be paid from the wealth that he had amassed for himself when he was still alive.

Money Isn’t the Answer

Can money give you ample sleep at night?
Can money bring you satiety you want?
Can money soothe the heart and mind aggrieved?
Can money resurrect a person dead?

Can money cause fertility in wombs?
Can money heal the wounds of minds and hearts?
Can money make up for one’s parents’ love?
Can money work a miracle you want?

Can money cure a cancer of grade four?
Can money bring joy to a childless pair?
Can money purchase your seat in heaven?
Can money solve all problems that you face?

There are so many things money can’t do;
Your trust in God and labor, matter too.

Living On Borrowed Time

A-yodel-ay-e. Hoo. Hoo. Hoo.
Well, I'm swimming in debt and the money's all gone
I ain't got nothing I can call my own
Worked my fingers to the blood and bone
For a big disappointment when my paycheck comes
If I only had a little I could do just fine
I could put a down payment on some peace of mind
But I'm hanging at the end of a credit line
Lord, I'm just living on borrowed time
My truck's financed through the Union Bank
But I don't have enough to even fill the tank
I'd take you for a drive, girl, but I just can't
Cuz the damned ol' motor won't even crank
My trailer's plenty big if we lived outside
But I can't swing the payments on a double wide
Better hold a place in that welfare line
Cause I'm just living on borrowed time
Chorus:
If it comes real cheap but it don't come free
Then it stays off limits to a guy like me
They say it brings trouble having money to burn
I reckon that's a lesson I won't have to learn.
Lord! Lord! Hmm-mmm.
Chorus
Yeah, I bought my wife a little diamond ring
Her mom said, Hon, can't even see that thing
It'll be paid off when I'm 65
If I'm lucky enough to still be alive
Even if I was to up and pass away
My family doesn't have enough to dig my grave
No tombstone just an old wood sign saying
He was just living on borrowed time
Out there swinging from a credit line
Lord, I'm just living on borrowed time
Lord, I'm just living on borrowed tim

Borrowed Time

Heard it many times.
Heard it said before.
'your living on borrowed Time'

Sometimes I wonder.
What do people mean?
By it
Your living on
Borrowed time.

I can
Soft of understand.

Time is not always borrowed.
It can be given
Then taken away

So I guess that mostly
Time is borrowed

Livin' On Borrowed Time

Yodel-a-heeeeee hoo hoo hoooo
Well I'm swimmin in debt and the money's all gone
I ain't got nothin' I can call my own
Work my fingers to the blood and bone
For a big disappointment when my paycheck comes
If I only had a little I could do just fine
I could put a down payment on some peace of mind
But I'm hangin at the end of a credit line
Lord I'm just livin' on borrowed time
My truck's financed through the Union Bank
But I don't have enough to even fill the tank
I'd take you for a ride girl but I just can't
'Cause the damned old motor won't even crank
My trailer's plenty big if we live outside
But I can't swing the payments on a double wide
You better hold a place in that welfare line
'Cause I'm just livin' on borrowed time
Yeah if it comes real cheap but don't come free
Then it stays off limits to a guy like me
They say it brings trouble havin' money to burn
I reckon that's a lesson I won't have to learn
Oh No
Yeah if it comes real cheap but don't come free
Then it stays off limits to a guy like me
They say it brings trouble havin' money to burn
I reckon that's a lesson I won't have to learn
Yeah I bought my wife a little diamond ring
Her mom said "Hon, can't even see that thing"
It'll be paid off when I'm sixty five
If I'm lucky enough to still be alive
Even if I was to up and pass away
My family doesn't have enough to dig my grave
No tombstone just an old wood sign
Sayin He was just livin' on borrowed time
Out there hangin' from a credit line
Lord I'm just livin' on borrowed time
Lord I'm just livin' on borrowed time

It's up to the courage of the filmmakers to make art in cinema, not just business. John was rejected by studios, he borrowed money and did movies with his own money. You're either courageous or not. You have to find a way.

Money Money Song

Money money
Is going to get me a girl
Money money
I am going to use it to buy me a cup of coffee
Money money
Is going to take me to Paris
Money money
Is going to buy me some new clothes
Money money
I am going to use it to do my laundry
Momey money
Is going to buy me some groceries
Money money
Is going to pay to fix my house
Money money
Is going to send me to the rich men's world
Money money is going to buy me a cellular phone

Foreclosure Of A Dream

Rise so high, yet so far to fall.
A plan of dignity and balance for all.
Political breakthrough, euphorias high.
More borrowed money, more borrowed time.
Backed in a corner, caught up in the race.
Means to an end ended in disgrace.
Perspective is lost in the spirit of the chase.
/chorus/
Foreclosure of a dream,
Those visions never seen,
Until all is lost,
Personal holocaust.
Foreclosure of a dream.
Barren land that once filled a need,
Are worthless now, dead without a deed.
Slipping away from an iron grip,
Natures scales are forced to tip,
The heartland cries, loss of all pride.
To leave aint believing, so try and be tried.
Insufficient funds, insanity and suicide.
/chorus/
Now with new hope some will be proud.
This is no hoax, no one pushed out.
Receive a reprieve and be a pioneer.
Break new ground of a new frontier.
New ideas will surely get by.
No deed, or dividend. some may ask why?
Youll find the solution, the answers in the sky.
Rise so high, yet so far to fall.
A plan of dignity and balance for all.
Political breakthrough, euphorias high.
More borrowed money, more borrowed time.
/chorus/
Holocaust

Riddle: What

charges by the hour
works with impunity
guarantees no result
seduces with prospects
advertises on the subway
abets victimhood
always needs more time
always needs more money
stands at the crossroads
of every human transaction
with their palms outstretched
prefers to settle
requires another to control
and stuffs congress...?


You didn't have to answer so quickly.
