I Want My Bailout Money (video)


This is the super-popular video of the song "I Want My Bailout Money" written and performed by Michael Adams, from his album "Beyond All Reason."

It takes aim at the Federal Reserve and U.S. Treasury for robbing the American people blind through runaway bailout money creation.

Here are the full lyrics:

I want my bailout money
Keep the bills coming
Sweet green cash just drippin like honey
I'm a new kind of thug with a Washington buzz 'cause
Dealing debt pays better than dealing drugs
What do you think will happen when they double the money supply?
The falling dollar makes it harder for you to survive
They take those billions and trillions and give it to their own kind
Hope you don't mind bein robbed blind

How do you think we got runaway credit?
Ain't nothin goin down unless the crooks in Washington let it
Now they regret it but they still don't get it
Cause the economy is crashin so bad it needs a paramedic

I want my bailout money
Sweet green cash just dripping with honey
Gotta keep this economy running
I need another hit of my bailout money

Look at the stash, it's like a mad dash for the cash
They got the taxpayer takin it in the ass
the CEOs they are havin a blast
While the workin poor trying to make the paycheck last

The bailout money is created with new debt
While they rollin in their limos and private jets
All the workers on the street drippin sweat
While collar hustlers are takin everything they can get

They put the nation on a hyperinflation track
No Presidential administration can take it back
And now the taxpayers pickin up the slack
Like they put a high dollar Big Brother monkey on your back

I want my bailout money
Sweet green cash just dripping with honey
Gotta keep this economy running
I need another hit of my bailout money

The prisons are filled with brothers caught on a fifty-dollar jack
But when Whitey takin trillions, the cops they turn their back
The incompetent bankers, they get their jobs back
Cause those crankers smoking money like it was crack

They take your car, your home, everything that you own
And when you're jobless and broke, you still gotta pay the loan
If you're thinkin of stealin some food, please don't
Just go to Washington and you can steal everything you want

How we gonna solve this, dissolve the big scam
We resolve we won't let 'em steal from a fellow man
Raise our hands and ask "What is this?"
Then we put the Federal Reserve out of business!

You take a look at a dollar bill, you see that eye above the pyramid lookin back at you
That eye is laughin at you suckers!

I want my bailout money
Keep the con running
Sweet green cash just dripping with honey
Gotta keep this economy running
I need another hit of my bailout money

Aren't you tired of payin for that? Tired of breakin your back for that?
Bein oppressed and suppressed while you keep payin your tax for that?
We gotta get out of this financial trap
And it's never gonna stop until you take your country back

The politicians are useless, don't you know that they used us
And the bankers refused us while the media schooled us
The authorities knew this was happening to us
Cause they make more money every time that they screw us

You didn't think they're printing all that funny money just for you, did ya?

Drownin' in debt but the Fed isn't done yet
What are we gonna get?
Gonna print funny money
Budget's in the red, economy nearly dead
Politician's said that we
Gonna print funny money
Hangin' by a thread, the people are bein' bled
But get it through your head that we
Gonna print funny money
The bankers gotta stay ahead, gotta make more bread
That's when they said, "Print more money!"

Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer Split. Again.
January 21, 2009 12:13:18 PM PST
They're on, they're off, they're hot, they're cold.

We can't keep track of the current status of Jennifer Aniston's relationship with himbo John Mayer.

But apparently as of Wednesday afternoon John had reportedly dumped Jen. Again.

According to Britain's Heat magazine, Jen's lack of enthusiasm for their union left John feeling rejected, which prompted him end the relationship.

An "insider" says, "It was after the Golden Globes, he decided to end it then and there."

Um, but they didn't even attend the Golden Globes, so why would that matter?

The two haven't been photographed together since just before Christmas, although John was supposedly with her and Courteney Cox and company in Cabo to ring in the new year.

Many people thought they got back together just because she was promoting Marley & Me and it was convenient.

But with her new movie He's Just Not That Into You being released on February 6, you would think she would avoid another break-up at any cost, just to keep the cliches under control.

H.L. Sundance Wire Wrap-Up
January 21, 2009 12:00:37 PM PST


While many of the Sundance celebs celebrated the swearing in of President Barack Obama, yesterday, a few movies managed to garner attention, most notably, the Jim Carrey-Ewan McGregor prison love story, I Love You Phillip Morris,which debuted yesterday. Metromix called it, "entertaining and risky," and predicted, that it "should cause a stir" when it hits the theatres.

Another favorite was the Chris Rock doc, Good Hair, which takes an insightful look at black women's hair and the politics and social pressures around it. It was a crowd-pleaser, and received a positive review from Variety's Justin Chang, who writes, "Who knew hair could be such an inexhaustibly fertile topic?"

An Education, a story about a relationship between an older man-younger woman, adapted by novelist Nick Hornby, was well-received, produced a breakout star in Carey Mulligan, and is in a pitched negotiation battle, with CAA and Fox Searchlight ambling for the flick (price point is said to be $1 mil).

Over at the Hollywood Life House, we caught up with Emmy Rossum, Joseph Gordon, and Zoe Deschanel. Interviews to come soon on our Sundance page.
