THE ARROGANT WORMS - PROUD T O BE A BANKER lyrics

rate me

I'm proud to be a banker

I'm proud to be a banker

I'm proud to be a banker

'Cause I get to play with other people's money

I'm having a lousy day

I burned my toast and spilled my coffee

On my best shirt. So I had to change and then

I'm late for work. So I rush into the meeting

Where they are discussing what my future in the corporation is

And I don't really give a damn

But I don't have another job

And so I lie and say

I'm proud to be a banker

I'm proud to be a banker

I'm proud to be a banker

'Cause I get to talk to stimulating people

I open up my mail

Hoping that it's not a bill but it's from the bank

Saying that I have only 20 hours to go

To contribute to my RRSP for this tax year

So I run down to the bank but there's a 20-mile lineup

And I'm yelling and I'm screaming

And I'm not wearing any pants ah ah ah ah ahhhhh

I'm proud to be a banker

I'm proud to be a banker

I'm proud to be a banker

'Cause I get to screw with other people's lives

I took out 40 bucks

From the automatic teller. It told me

That I couldn't 'cause I just had 10

But that can't be 'cause I just got paid on Friday

So I go down to the bank, wait an hour in the lineup

And I'm talking to the teller

She says "Wait I'll get your last month's statement"

She comes back in 7 hours

Says I've got some interest charges and a cheque from Uncle Bill

That bounced and so they'll have to charge me 40 bucks for that

And for the box I never opened and I don't have overdraft protection

And I think I'll die before I pay off all that I owe and I don't even

Own a car

I'm pleased to be a banker

I'm proud to be a banker

I'm pleased to be a banker

'Cause I get to play with other people's money

(HE'S A BANKER)

Would you please endorse this cheque?

(HE'S A BANKER)

Do you have any assets?

(HE'S A BANKER)

You should buy you shouldn't rent

(HE'S A BANKER)

The cheque will cost you fifty cents

(IT WILL COST YOU FIFTY CENTS)

(He's a banker and he says

that it will cost you fifty cents

He's a banker and he says

that it will cost you fifty cents)

(IT WILL COST YOU FIFTY CENTS)
