Give Greece A Chance

Give Greece a Chance (with apologies to John Lennon)

Ev'rybody's talkin' 'bout
Bail-outs, fail-outs, wail-outs, big doubts
ATM’s down, wear a big frown, get outta town
All we are saying is give Greece a chance
All we are saying is give Greece a chance

Ev'rybody's talkin' 'bout
Defaults, at-faults, cash-halts, horse-bolts
The World Bank, the IMF, the ECB,
All we are saying is give Greece a chance
All we are saying is give Greece a chance

Let me tell you now, ev'rybody's talkin' 'bout
Austerity, longevity, sheer temerity, looming poverty
Addendums, referendums, have a big moan, Euro-zone
All we are saying is give Greece a chance
All we are saying is give Greece a chance

Now ev'rybody's talkin' 'bout
Grexit, Brexit, flex it, what the heck’s it
It’s got so raggedy, become a Greek tragedy,
Going back to barter, pots of taramasalata
All we are saying is give Greece a chance
All we are saying is give Greece a chance
