You cannot believe what is happening to me
I work for RBS, I’m a key employee
I go in nearly every day – Stopping just for a latte
I’m the kind of person Steven Hestor wants to retain
I can make money from the state, like out of thin air
And he doesn’t want me to take these skills elsewhere
Imagine my concern and horror when I heard that
My SACRED BONUS – may be subject to a one-off tax
Well here I go..I'm walking free
Off to update my banking sector CV
Watch My Dust, Adios, Au Revior, I'm Long Gone
But if Steve can Fix My Bonus....I might consider Staying on
There was some sort of bail out..but ages ago
Some people seem to think there’s still some money we owe
They want to stop our bonuses, it just isn’t fair
They say that they resent state funded millionaires
The press implies the nations economic situation
is down to what they call City Greed
But If you could claim this treasure to spend on shameless pleasure
Surely you would keep it just like me
And so I'm Off...I’m walking free
I'm Off to update my banking sector CV
Watch my dust, adios, Au Revoir, I’m long gone
But If Steve could fix my bonus….I might consider staying on.
It’s a bummer, OBAMA wants his money back
We can’t get our normal millions without being taxed
The press is full of horror
The treasury wants a quarrel
The man on the street just thinks we’re all immoral
But it’s just a profit share so there shouldn’t be a fuss
Fred Goodwin did no favours to the rest of us
My banking record’s been pretty perfect
And as L’Oreal says – It’s Because I’m Worth It!
So Here I Go
I'm Walking Free
Off to find someone who’ll appreciate me
Goodbye,
Kwa Heri,
Adios,
So Long..
But If Steve can fix my bonus….I might consider staying on.
Skilled banker in the investment arm
Seeks the kind of salary that causes global alarm.
Experienced in getting money from the state,
Instrumental in decreasing interest rates,
Seeks a new post where the press leaves you be
With a guaranteed bonus every January
But it’s a pain, To change my life
And go and ask Steven for my P45
And it’s a shock – to be frank
I’ve discovered that it’s happening in every bank.
And So I'll Go...., I’ll Emigrate
But Barack is splitting up the banks,
I Can't go to the States!
With the Tax increase in April,
my life can’t go more wrong..
OK Steven...
.....Looks like I'll be staying on.
