Ο Merle Hazard, γνωστός κωμικός από το Tennessee των ΗΠΑ, έφτιαξε ένα τραγούδι για την ελληνική οικονομική κρίση...
Το video αυτό κυκλοφορεί στο youtube τις τελευταίες μέρες κάνοντας κάποιους Έλληνες χρήστες που "δεν σηκώνουν μύγα στο σπαθί τους" να αντιδρούν έντονα αφού το τραγούδι προτείνει στην Ελλάδα να πουλήσει την Κρήτη.
Ο Hazard πάντως απαντάει στους Έλληνες χρήστες ότι είναι λάτρης του ελληνικού πολιτισμού και ότι έχει στο παρελθόν φτιάξει παρόμοια τραγούδια για την κρίση στην δική του χώρα, τις ΗΠΑ.
Οι Στίχοι
Oh yes, the Greeks gave us Pythagoras, and Euclid, and Plato, and other wondrous stuff But balancing their national budget, their budget, their budget, apparently is tough They used derivatives from Goldman, from Goldman, from Goldman, expenses to postpone And had to go to France and Germany, and Germany, and Germany, to get a bailout loan
They borrowed short, at a lower rate Like the Wall Street brokers, we have grown to hate And when the markets, get into a Funk They won't buy your paper, if it's rated "junk"
The budget problem of the Greeks, of the Greeks, of the Greeks, are a European pain I hope it doesn't spread to Portugal, Portugal, Portugal, Italy or Spain The ECB and IMF, IMF, IMF, have applied their expertise To keep the European Union, from crumbling, from crumbling, just like feta cheese
Let’s hear a little bouzouki! [Instrumental]
And when the markets, get into a Funk They won't buy your paper, if it's rated "junk"
Some say that Greece may drop the Euro, the Euro, the Euro so their products can compete And if it still is not enough, not enough, not enough, maybe they can sell off Crete. And if it still is not enough, not enough, not enough, maybe they can sell off Crete!
