LYRICS:

Everyone knows these times are really tough
And we need to band together say we’ve had enough
All the jobless people need to learn to be content
Cause what we need to do is protect our one percent

Save the rich
Let them know you care
Don’t leave to languish
In their penthouse of despair

Save the rich
Let their bonuses be swollen
And let them keep it all tax free
Even if it’s stolen

Save the rich

Let’s give our job creators
More than their fare share
So they can go to Asia
And create jobs over there

There’s loopholes and exemptions
And children to exploit
So give them special tax breaks
Go fuck yourself Detroit

And those who don’t create jobs
Really need help too
Cause without their 7th home
How will they make it through

It’s not time for complaining
Not the time for class war
It’s time sacrifice yourself
To give them more and more and more
And more and more and more

Save the rich
America’s built on corporate greed
It’s not Wall Street’s fault
If you can’t get what you need

Save the rich
Don’t go crying to mommy
Cause if you don’t agree
Than you’re socialist commie

Save the rich

Blame yourself for your problems
Not the bad economy
So what if those who have the most
Are the ones who put it in jeopardy

Fuck your student loans
Fuck your kids and their health care
It’ll only take 10,000 of your jobs
To put another private jet in the air

Save the rich
It’s so easy to do
Just let yourself be ignorant
To what’s been done to you

Save the rich
By doing nothing at all
Deny all sense and logic
And just think really small
You should think really small
Or just don’t think at all
And save the rich
