John Dillinger

John Dillinger was a bad, bad man

He robbed banks

He had a gang

Not the kind we know today

Who buy our presidents

But a crime wave for the airways

In everybody's face

John Dillinger, John Dillinger, John Dillinger

John Dillinger, John Dillinger, John Dillinger

A magnet for the masses

In movies, news and song

So why'd they brand him

Public enemy number one?

To keep people's minds

Off the Great Depression

And who should really hang

For causing the whole thing

Give the public Johnny

Bonnie, Babyface, and Clyde

So just like now

Wall Street gets a free ride

John Dillinger, John Dillinger, John Dillinger

John Dillinger, John Dillinger, John Dillinger

Johnny, Johnny baby

Pop star or patsy?

Maybe both at the same time

You sure came in handy

As the CEOs leave the theater

Trophy wives in red

It's G-men to the rescue

Open fire and Earth is saved

My friend Hugh DeNeal

From the Woodbox Gang

Got three and a half in Leavenworth

For small time Ponzi schemes

He should have known better

And he'd be a free man

If he'd been working Wall Street

For bonuses instead

Throw the book at small time crooks

While Goldman Sachs walks

And the Bernies made off

With the stimulus and more

John Dillinger, John Dillinger, John Dillinger

John Dillinger, John Dillinger, John Dillinger
