Financial Amnesty
Wrongdoers created financial meltdown
In a sea of red ink whole Countries drown
For greed, they’ve altered global destiny
Leaders ought proclaim financial amnesty

In the financial system we have today, with less risk concentrated in banks, the probability of systemic financial crises may be lower than in traditional bank-centered financial systems.

Over and over again, financial experts and wonkish talking heads endeavor to explain these mysterious, 'toxic' financial instruments to us lay folk. Over and over, they ignobly fail, because we all know that no one understands credit default obligations and derivatives, except perhaps Mr. Buffett and the computers who created them.

Meltdown
(young - young)
I look at my watch to find out the right time of the day
I look at her libido hey hey hey
I gotta get up and climb her, to roll her on the hay
Makin a sweat, temperature rise all through the day
Man its getting hot hot hot
I said man its getting hot hot hot
Its getting hotter and hotter
Man its getting hot hot
Getting hot around here
Its a meltdown
Its a meltdown
I got a feelin in my bones
I been rackin my brains out all night long
Stokin up the fire take it right up to the wire
Burnin on and on burnin on
Man its getting hot hot hot
I said man its getting hot hot hot
Its getting hotter and hotter
Man its getting hot hot
Getting hot around here
Its a meltdown
Its a meltdown
Its a meltdown
Its a meltdown
Meltdown
Man its getting hot hot hot
I said man its getting hot hot hot
Its getting hotter and hotter
And hotter and hotter
Its a meltdown, its a meltdown
Its a meltdown, its a meltdown
Its a meltdown, gonna burn, its a meltdown

Its a meltdown, meltdown, meltdown
Its a meltdown, its a meltdown

The One And Only Immortal
Those who do love Nature are blessed indeed
For all of her friends our Earth Mother does need
The one every life form on Planet Earth does feed
Has been made to suffer due to human greed
The greedy for financial gain her beauty try to destroy
A beauty that is meant for all to enjoy
For their crimes humanity may have to pay
That does seem a sad thing for to have to say
The beauty of Nature is an amazing thing
And her praises one ought to feel happy to sing
The one who will be here long after to nothingness we've gone
The only immortal will be living on
And we who abuse her for our financial greed
Are not very clever and self destructive indeed.

One of the gaps in our international development efforts is the provision of global public goods - that is, goods or conditions we need that no individual or country can secure on their own, such as halting global warming, financial stability and peace and security.

Crisis Looming
Financial crisis is looming ahead, as hearts fill with fear and dread,
The crisis now seen can’t be denied, as problems move worldwide.
Many looking for a world financier, to address all the financial fear,
Men from each and every country, are looking for financial stability.
Countries looking to tax and spend, trying to avoid a climactic end.
Men talk about a rippling effect, but they haven’t seen anything yet.
Even corrected, it’s deeper though, and shall fill the world with woe.
Corporate structures and their worth, are falling all across this earth,
Hurting men’s lives and wages, as they trust in their financial sages.
The world we know is headed for, a time no one’s ever seen before.
All of this is the setting of a stage, for the coming End of this Age,
Next there’ll be a spiritual thrust, asking men to hand over their trust,
To one single man with one belief, all as a part of economical relief.
This will all be backed of course, by a worldwide government force,
Lead by one charismatic man, and unknown to all has a darker plan.
That’s to take the end time stage, and fill the world with darker rage.
This Leader shall use all three, Government, Religion and Economy,
To unite this world, all as his own, exalting himself to God’s Throne,
But, as he pursues his plan though, multitudes shall come to know,
This leader won’t help but destroy life, for this man is the Antichrist.

Look at the product pipeline, look at the fantastic financial results we've had for the last five years. You only get that kind of performance on the innovation side, on the financial side, if you're really listening and reacting to the best ideas of the people we have.

The financial capital is being concentrated by corporations, institutional investors, and even our pension funds, and being reinvested in companies that repeat this process because it provides the highest return on that financial capital.

Help is even being offered from across the ocean, as over two dozen countries have stepped forward to offer financial and material support to the American people.
Credit crunch!
I hear no sound of joy or laughter
As the markets crash like thunder
Take a look at the whole financial bunch
Many made money on just a keypunch
Banks which once stood brave
Are now begging to be saved
With Governments pumping billions into banks
Because many claim to have empty money tanks
People’s savings are wiped off the record
Sit home! Sit home! Calculate what you can afford
For fast is this growing curse flowing
As the financial chaos wind keeps blowing
On each lip only two words are spoken
Credit-Crunch!
Behold the whole Financial Market is broken!
