Take the Money and Run
This here's a story about Hanky Paul and Benny Boo
Two old white billionaires with everything to lose
They wanna get rich on fraud and pass the bill to you
And here is what happened when they decided to cut loose

They headed off to DC and rounded up their vassals
That's when they decided to rob the people's castle
Hanky Paul waved the gun and said give me all the capital
Benny Boo took the money and run

Go on take the money and run
Go on take the money and run
Go on take the money and run
Go on take the money and run

Barack Obama comes from the Chicago nexus
You know he knows just exactly how to fix this
He ain't gonna let those two escape justice
They're making off with all the other peoples taxes

Benny Boo, whoa, whoa, he could slip away
Hanky Paul could be gone the very next day
They got the money, hey
You know they could get away

They'll be headed east, 'round Dubai way
Unless we're careful and stop them both today
They'll be gone, smilin' and singing all the way..

Go on take the money and run
Go on take the money and run
Go on take the money and run
Go on take the money and run

I used to be a DJ on a classic rock station. I had to play that song SOOOO many times.

16. Some
I think could listen to "Houses of the Holy" (whole album) and "Physical Graffiti" every day for a year and not be sick of them.

18. Got it in one. "Houses of the Holy" is my favorite album of theirs..
I'm not as fond of "Physical Graffiti", but needless to say it's a classic.

9. So nice to have you back, Swampy!
It's not the same here without you. You're like the guy who plays the guitar when we all gather together to talk. That "music" is the soul of DU.
