With Wall Street almost reduced to smoldering rubble and both the Mets and the Yankees eliminated from the MLB playoffs, it’s looking pretty bleak in New York nowadays. New Yorkers must have done something to incur the wrath of the gods. Was it:
- Shutting down Coney Island to make way for more condos?
- Creating Manhattan clam chowder?
- Laughing at jokes in King of Queens?
- Misunderstanding King Kong?
- Sashaying down the Avenue of Remembrance?
- Tearing down slums in Harlem in favor of building Ivy League sports stadiums?
- Putting a French Maid costume on the Statue of Liberty?
- Skipping church on Sunday to watch Brett Favre’s debut?
- Changing public opinion on Spiderman so often?
- Or was it that investment bankers began reneging on their Faustian bargains?
Forming the angry hand of God smiting New York, the Band feels pity for I-Bankers, and joins them in singing the “Wall Street Blues.”
