Lyrics
Economic growth,
higher standards of living,
increased consumption,
provide new jobs,
very good consumer climate,
high sales and profit margins,
increased innovation,
increased productivity.
One percent
owns more than half of everything.
And one half owns
one percent.
So may I ask - what are you telling us?
Operate globally
with just-in-time production.
Use human capital management,
be efficient and flexible.
Carry only assets that maximize value,
generate demand growth.
Increase your shareholder value
stock market rally.
And now we are stuck at home
and sing on our balconies.
Skies are clear again,
nights are silent again.
And with plenty of time to be scared
there's also plenty of time to think,
plenty of time to change some things.
These are not immutable laws.
Let's get back to normal.
But was it really normal before?
Do we want to go back there?
All for one percent?
