By Johnny Cashpoint
As society comes crashing downward , we will need to find
Ourselves a new gold standard.
Stop economy from falling backwards; Lets just monetize the
Angries waving placards
They are everywhere but protests matter for precisely
Naught, they flatter to deceive; all their chatter
Is financial goldmine waiting to be cashed in on and tapped for
Everything we can gather
We’re the gnomes of Zurich, Kansas
Depending on their signage, We could get financial mileage
From the product of their gray matter
And turn them into cash cows, While we are at it, it’s bad habit- why not
Steal their banking passwords?
We are the gnomes of Zurich, Kansas
And It's just what half a man does now ...
SOLO
if this all sounds desperate, well,
It is, but Capitalists rely on Optimists to thrive
Since we are all drowning, take our chances,
It is best to just swim landward, step on heads to survive ...

Gold Standard
by Brown Word and the Big Whine
4/19/2025
I got a mattress fulla rings for a 401k
wearing sequins on my rump I did a pump n dump
gold knucks, lost some weight on the vitamin M
but a body can't be neither too rich or too thin
Empire
Empire
Emperor
We're temporarily embarrassed since forever
But you know we think we're millionaires?
this is the gold standard, sons and daughters
if you can't touch it, it ain't yours (put out your hand)
I can't abide nobody creeping round my turnip patch baby
It's the law of honor see you never milked a cow and it
shows suff'ring destroys and your character is WEAK
I'm drunk on power son, don't you test me in the streets
I'm a little tiny army in a little tiny war
Just looking for a reason someone pushes me too far
Cuz I'm bigger behind the trigger
I'm bigger behind the trigger
I'm bigger behind the
I'm bigger behind the
bigger behind the trigger
"When there's blood in the streets buy buy buy
Satire
Buy buy buy
Sabateur
Buy buy buy
"Greed is good" etc.
There's no moral to this story
The powerful guys are all creeps
All the good guys are in disbelief
Well I'm a woman rest assured
you can hear me roar
Four blocks away in DEI-
Fuck off misogyny (keep it classy)
Burn the billionaires and live off the light

Re: Gold Standard
Gold Standard
You know you had it, you had it made
You were the measure of everything
But then you lost it, you gave it away
Now we’ll see what tomorrow brings
You know your word was, your word was your bond
The whole world put its trust in you
But then you played it, you played it wrong
And now we’ll see what the world can do
Gold standard, it’s what they expected
Gold standard, it’s what they demand
Gold standard, and now you’ve defected
Gold standard, it’s out of your hands
You were the big shot, the big shot in town
You were the player with all the cards
But now the house rules are bringing you down
You’re gonna fall and you’re gonna fall hard
You know you bought it, your stock in trade
You thought you knew what nobody knew
You thought the world, the world could be played
And now you’ve got it coming to you
Gold standard, it’s what they expected
Gold standard, it’s what they demand
Gold standard, and now you’ve defected
Gold standard, it’s out of your hands
You were the big shot, the big shot in town
You were the player with all the cards
But now the house rules are bringing you down
You’re gonna fall and you’re gonna fall hard
You know you had it, you had it made
You were the measure of everything
But then you lost it, you gave it away

Gold Standard
Berkeley Social Scene
Don’t you see what’s going on
A lot of people hurting but floating on
Don’t you feel the pain and woe
A lot people saying but they don’t know
Let me tell you what we need to do
Gotta go back to a place of truth
Let me try to make this clear
Gotta get back to a place so dear
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
Respect and honor and virtue matter
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
When we were young we had it good
People treated others like just like they should
Before the mess that we have now
Gotta get back to Bretton Woods
Let me tell you what we need to do
Gotta go back to a place of truth
Let me try to make this clear
Gotta get back to place so dear
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
Respect and honor and virtue matter
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
Seas are choppy and storms a brew
Gotta find peace in what we do
Come on in now from the cold
As you all know, fortune favors the bold
Let me tell you what we need to do
Gotta go back to a place of truth
Let me try to make this clear
Gotta get back to place so dear
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
Respect and honor and virtue matter
We’re gonna go back to the gold standard
