Текст песни Mama Economy (The Economy Explained) - Tay Zonday , Lindsey Stirling
Are
you
confused
about
the
economy?
Well
have
no
fear
I'm
going
to
explain
the
American
economy
right
now
The
dollar
just
think
of
it
like
A
promise
from
the
government
But
the
value
of
the
dollar
Has
to
be
there
to
be
relevant
The
value
of
the
dollar
comes
from
China
and
Iran
When
they
put
their
cash
reserves
In
a
U.S.
dollar
plan
-
They
buy
treasury
bonds
from
The
Federal
Reserve
We
say
"we
owe
you
extra
money
Cause
you
gave
us
some
of
yours"
That's
a
big
part
Of
the
National
Debt
All
the
interest
that
we
Haven't
paid
to
China
quite
yet
-
And
a
hundred
other
countries
Cause
we're
such
a
good
investment
The
whole
world
gives
us
money
We
say
"Hey
we'll
pay
you
interest!"
This
is
how
money
is
created
from
air
Bank
bailouts,
federal
budgets
Money
isn't
really
there
-
It's
an
I.O.U.,
remember
dollars
are
a
promise
When
you
borrow
from
a
bank
It's
not
from
other
depositors
The
money
for
your
loan
Gets
created
on
the
spot
Then
they
put
it
in
your
name
Gamble
on
your
life
and
body
-
But
if
you
lose
your
job
Then
you
were
a
bad
bet
If
a
million
lose
their
jobs
Then
we
have
a
recession
Here's
the
dirty
secret
Your
labor's
too
expensive
Wall
Street
wants
you
spending
money
But
they
never
want
to
pay
you
-
In
your
life
cash
and
credit
They
are
very
different
things
But
your
credit's
someone
else's
cash
Once
it
leaves
your
name
This
is
why
money
is
debt
And
your
debt
is
good
for
Wall
Street
prosperity
-
And
economic
growth
since
the
1970s
Is
consumers
getting
credit
Without
wages
increasing
So
when
they
talk
about
the
housing
crisis
They
never
say
we
need
to
lower
housing
prices
-
We
need
better
devices
To
afford
high
prices
Meaning
higher
debt
lower
interest
Cause
you're
underpaid
to
begin
with
That's
the
cycle
we're
in
We
don't
understand
so
All
we
can
do
is
question
Mama
economy
make
me
understand
All
the
numbers
why
Daddy's
on
a
welfare
plan
Turnin
thirty
forty
fifty
gotta
move
in
with
my
parents
And
the
stocks
go
up
but
the
jobs
disappear
Mama
economy
make
me
understand
All
the
numbers
why
Daddy's
on
a
welfare
plan
Turnin
thirty
forty
fifty
gotta
move
in
with
my
parents
And
the
stocks
go
up
but
the
jobs
disappear
Because
wages
barely
grew
for
40
years
When
you
buy
stuff
They
delay
the
cost
of
ownership
You
can't
afford
it
So
they
make
it
to
depend
On
endless
small
transactions
Which
is
more
like
renting
You
pay
more
for
printer
ink
Than
you
do
for
gold
and
More
for
bottled
water
Than
you
do
for
oil
Razor
blades
are
made
to
oxidate
So
you're
forever
in
debt
to
them
Just
to
shave
It's
a
type
of
socialism
Called
market
socialism
The
best
designed
product
Meets
a
need
and
doesn't
last
We
subsidize
waste
With
landfills
and
holidays
like
Earth
Day
teachin'
kids:
Recycle
please
Kids
don't
learn
in
school
We
live
one
worldview
Neoliberal
economics
In
all
of
their
politics
They
don't
ask
why
corporations
Are
human
citizens
Or
why
grandma
pays
more
taxes
Cause
she
lacks
stock
dividends
Or
why
private
bankers
Print
the
public
money
Or
why
democracy
is
broken
Cause
their
leaders
won't
be
cutting
Loopholes
or
subsidies
For
constituent
industries
Putting
legislative
bodies
In
a
deep
freeze
So
the
Ph.Ds
and
the
G.E.D.s
Cry
with
Ayn
Rand
down
at
the
temp
agency
Sayin'
"we
believed
in
Meritocracy
But
there's
more
to
the
story
Answer
me!
