The Carpetbagger Video (MV)

I remember when you said you were leaving
Hurricane winds brought a business opportunity
So you bought a little land
And built a high rise property
Fancy people moved in
And you became your own man
Do you remember when
You heard the drums of Burundi
The colonial twin would be white-skinned and groovy
You put together the band
To bang the beats out properly
And did The Mockingbirds land
Or was that not part of the plan
I can't speak for your father, son
But your mother didn't raise no carpetbagger
I remember when I said you were perfect
The infallible kid
God's gift to humanity
It isn't hard to understand
Mr. Greenspan's philosophy
Or how the devil Ayn Rand
Turns a boy into a brand
I can't speak for your father, son
But your mother didn't raise no carpetbagger
