Beautiful Morning

Oh What a Beautiful Morning

See the customers line up at Goldman

For the market positions we sold ‘em.

For all of our wisdom we’re handsomely paid.

And we’re also on the other side of each trade

Every day’s sunny at Goldman

Revenue translates to pay

Funny how all our shareholders

Think they’ll get some ROA.

Though we’re scheduled on Congress’s dockets

All the while we are lining our pockets.

They’ll add regulations to strangle our throat

But we’ll just make the Fabulous Fab the scapegoat.

Front-running customer orders

New scandals break every day

Directors do insider trading

Until they get caught it’s okay.

When our net worth has grown beyond measuring

We’ll retire and work for the Treasury.

Where Goldman Sachs’ interests are Rule #1

Like all of our old predecessors have done.

Self-serving commerce at Goldman

That’s how our profits are made

Here is your caveat emptor

Watch when you give us a trade.

Everyone here's getting paid!
