GIMME THREE STEP'S WALL STREET SLICKSTER
(GIMME THREE STEPS, Lynard Skynard)
WilliamBanzai7

I was cutting the rug
Down at a place called the Bull and Bear jug
With a mound of bailout bonus loot
When in walked a man
With a gun in his hand
And he was looking for a banker or two.
He said, hey there fellow,
With the Hermes tie colored yellow,
Watcha tryin to prove?
cause that's my money there
And I'm a man who cares
And this might be all for you.

I was scared and fearing for my life.
I was shakin like a bailot zombie.
cause he was lean, mean,
Big and bad, lord,
Pointin that gun at me.
I said, wait a minute, mister,
I ain't no PONZI scheming slickster.
Dont want no trouble with you.
And I know you dont owe me
But I wish youd let me
Ask one favor from you.

(chorus)
Wont you give me three steps,
Gimme three steps mister,
Gimme three steps towards the bailout door?
Gimme three steps
Gimme three steps mister,
And youll never see me no more.

Well the crowd cleared away
And I began to pray
As my blackberry fell on the floor.
And Im telling you son,
Well, it aint no fun
Staring straight down a bailout busting forty-four.
Well he turned and screamed at Cramer on the TV screen
And thats the break I was looking for.
And you could hear me screaming a mile away
As I was headed out towards the door.

(chorus)
