Credit Cards

Americans go spastic
Chasing the plastic,
They cannot live apart
From their holy of holies,
Their credit card,
While the banks
With tongues of honey
Collect huge interest money,
Hell and heaven bent
Towards thirty percent,
Setting a consumer fee
High enough for bankruptcy.

Yes - live today
And pay tomorrow
Will cause ruin
And growing sorrow!
