Top Of The World

Such a feelin's comin' over me
I strike awe in nearly everyone I see
Every year, how sublime,

Ten percent, rain or shine

And I hope no one gets wise about my scheme

Widows, orphans, every charity
are entrusting all their livelihoods to me
And the reason is clear
My return’s without peer
I’ll take anybody’s money ‘cause it’s green.

I'm on the top of this Ponzi and I’m cooler than Fonzie
I’ve got houses in Manhattan and Montauk
And Palm Beach and in France and I'm hoping for the chance

to rip everybody off, then I'd walk.

Someone up in Boston says it’s bull

That my methodology’s not possible

To achieve yields as such, I’d have hedged ten times as much

As the volume that was traded on that day

I'm praying the feds will do their job

May my cell protect me from the Russian mob
Now that I’m in for life I won’t have to hear my wife

Tell me I’m a schmuck, mishugenah, oy vey!

I screwed my friends and screwed my neighbors

and I'm glad to do them favors

they throw money at me cause they're scared to find

that the others around got in early on the ground

and their portfolio is lagging behind.

I ran the second largest Ponzi in the world and I’m responsible

For stealing from the needy just for me

But you best look around, ‘cause the biggest scheme I’ve found

Is what we call Social Security.
