I can even glimpse a new and better way
    And I've demised a plan of action
    Worked it down to the last fraction
    And I'm going into action here today

    CHORUS:

    I am changing my name to Chrysler
    I am going down to Washington D.C.
    I will tell some power broker
    What they did for Iacocca
    Will be perfectly acceptable to me
    I am changing my name to Chrysler
    I am headed for that great receiving line
    So when they hand a million grand out
    I'll be standing with my hand out
    Yes sire I'll get mine

    When my creditors are screaming for their dough
    I'll be proud to tell them all where they can all go
    They won't have to scream and holler
    They'll be paid to the last dollar
    Where the endless streams of money seem to flow
    I'll be glad to tell them what they can do
    It's a matter of a simple form or two
    It's not just renumeration it's a liberal education
    Ain't you kind of glad that I'm in debt to you

    CHORUS

    Since the first amphibians crawled out of the slime
    We've been struggling in an unrelenting climb
    We were hardly up and walking before money started talking
    And it's sad that failure is an awful crime
    Well it's been that way for a millenium or two
    But now it seems that there's a different point of view
    If you're a corporate titanic and your failure is gigantic
    Down to congress there's a safety net for you

    CHORUS
