Pie in the sky

When you said you were tight we believed you And when things aren’t all right don’t you know that we need you You tell us you’re clear, make it easy to read you But what if you’re wrong, then why should we heed you You took us all up and the number is high But prices keep rising and I don’t know why You told us last year that rate cuts are nigh But maybe that dream’s just a pie in the sky C-R-E’s down, things just aren’t going well And getting a mortgage is like going through hell But the stock market’s saying that everything’s swell In fact it’s a bubble, far as I can tell You took us all up and the number is high But prices keep rising and I don’t know why You told us last year that rate cuts are nigh But maybe that dream’s just a pie in the sky Inflation’s supposed to keep falling towards two But now that it’s turning, just what will you do I know that you promised that rate hikes are through But now it appears that you haven’t a clue You took us all up and the number is high But prices keep rising and I don’t know why You told us last year that rate cuts are nigh But maybe that dream’s just a pie in the sky
