Professor Moriarty's Reincarnation
Goldman has its Shylock. So where's our Sherlock?

Professor Moriarty
    has been reborn as Lloyd,
But in the role of Sherlock Holmes
    we find a frightful void.

Is Lloyd as bad as Bushie?
    Another "instrument of God"?
How can that be? Yet both of them
    made sure that we'd be scrod.

"God's work", that Blankfein claims he does,
    just benefits the biggies.
While those of us on Main Street
    are mere fodder for his piggies.

Lloyd bets against the dollar.
    Who cares if prices rise?
To hell with the consumer
    and the imports that he buys.

Geithner, who's no Sherlock Holmes,
    makes sure we pay Lloyd's bail,
But next time we'll pray harder
    that God let's both bastards fail.
