Continuing with the abuse of widely known songs, TMRM has chosen to abuse Pink Floyd's "The Wall". With this lyrical abuse, TMRM substitutes new words to the infamous "wall" with satire concerning the recent economic losses incurred by the working class.

If Pink Floyd was alive today, he'd likely like having the song abused to point out our societal monetary failures since it stays in the theme of the controlling machine.

"All in all..."   Thank you PF

Expect to see this air around January 16th 2009

We don't need no education
The market’s down – a situation.

 

We don't need no thought control
Wall Street actions out of control

 

No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Dark days are coming – future is gloom.

 

Teacher leave them kids alone
Retirement, going down a hole.

 

Hey! Teacher! Leave them kids alone!
Hey! Wall Streeters, Leave my funds alone.

 

All in all it's just another brick in the wall
All in all our savings have taken a fall.

 

All in all you're just another brick in the wall

Pockets near empty, we’re up against the wall

 

 

 

 

We don't need no education
Financial security, a thing of the past.

 

We don't need no thought control
While politicians just sat on their ass.

 

No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Rich executives struggle after bad decisions.

 

Teacher leave them kids alone
Layoffs coming so they can keep their millions.

 

Hey! Teacher! Leave them kids alone!
Hey! Wall Streeters, Leave my funds alone.

 

All in all it's just another brick in the wall
All in all our savings have taken a fall.

 

All in all you're just another brick in the wall

Pockets near empty, we’re up against the wall.
