Knew a man, a captain of industry Who built his house on pain and human misery Had a wife who ran in High Society Had several kids living lives oh so thoughtlessly And you will never see a house so bloody pretty Decked with tapestries in every single hall And you will never see a house so bloody stunning Made for the man who surely has it all But take a closer look and you will find His ma**ive gold gates are made from tears His investors lost their homes and everything Poor investors left with nothing but their fears Knew a man, a captain of industry Who built his house on pain and human misery Elected to the Board of every single civic Symphony Attended dinners thrown by every rubber chicken charity And you will never see a house so bloody pretty Decked with tapestries in every single hall And you will never see a house so bloody stunning Made for the man who surely has it all But take a closer look and you will find His driveway's paved with bricks of mad despair His investors lost their homes and everything Poor investors left with nothing but a prayer Knew a man, a captain of industry Who built his house on pain and human misery Died so rich, far beyond his wildest dreams Alone in his bed, nobody cared to grieve Nobody gives a damn about the captain of industry I don't give a damn Nobdy gives a hoot about the captain of industry I don't give a hoot Nobody gives a piss about the captain of industry I don't give a piss Nobody gives a fart about the captain of industry I don't give a fart
