Plunderco got in money trouble had to break the law
Dm Am C F
Had to balance the fine against the benefit to all
Bb A G F
Made a business decision to pay the fine and break the law
Am C F Am C F Gsus G Fsus F
Too big to fail, too rich for jail
[Chorus]
F C G
They can live with that so why don't we
F C G
After all they're just like you and me

They cast their votes and no one gets excited
F C G
Because they are Citizens United
[Interlude]

Dm Am C G
In the streets of the capital corporations are taking control
Dm Am C F
Democracy crushed at their feet
Bb A G F
Money flows free from the sky to those who come along
Am C F Am C F Gsus G Fsus F
Some way, somehow, we will prevail, but now
[Chorus]

When will we take back our freedom
F C G
To choose the way we live and die

Dm Am C G
Main Street's boarded up now the whole town's asleep
Dm Am C F
Mom 'n pop got boarded up in a small business retreat
Bb A G F
Display windows and broken glass, not a car on the street

Out at the big box store people lined up for more
[Chorus]

People working part-time at Walmart

F C G
Still standing by for the call to work

Too big to fail, too rich for jail

[Verse]
F C G
From the capital to the boarded-up main streets
F C G
Big Business is there at every turn
F C G
From the food we eat to the clothes we wear to the TV screen
F C G
From the air we breathe to the fuel we burn
