You Never Divvy Your Profits, Parody Song Lyrics of The Beatles, "You Never Give Me Your Money"
Song Parodies -> "You Never Divvy Your Profits"
"You Never Give Me Your Money"
"You Never Divvy Your Profits"
Prequel to the Oil King Medley. Divvy = divide.
I never wanted your unions.
You only want to tax corporations.
Out of college, found no job.
Student loan's due; interests rob.
Credit cards put me in debt.
Living wages I can't get.
Work very hard, become everything you scheme!
Downsizing, mergers, pay raise years away!
Been blown today—yes, it has!
Gall'n of gas costs four-eleven!
Gall'n of gas costs four-eleven…!
Actually, the oil companies DO divvy up their profits - by sending 35% to the federal government in the form of taxes (plus a few more percent to state governments), which is one of the highest corporate tax rates in the world. And you lefties wonder why jobs get outsourced.
What Steve K said, plus profits are also divvied through dividends and increasing stock prices; so, as more and more employees own 401K plans, they benefit from their employers' profitability.
This parody is genius! I love reading parodies based upon current events! I one of the many people in this world who's struggling to hold a job because the only kind of jobs I had been doing lately are temp jobs. But I get by very well. Good show, Melanie!!! 555!!
I'm not one for political parodies nor to be quite truthful the Beatles (They've just been done too many times) but this was a pretty good satire on what's been going on in the world lately.
(ABC) Well done indeed, like Mark sez.
ABC5(XYZ) Sums it all up in a nutshell!!!...Great concept, great pacing and rhyming, and the lines for the parents had me howling with laughter!!!...555!!!
