Mr. Papaconstantinou, we all should know your name.
\nHear tell that you made history, and stopped a crooked game.
\nAs Minister of Finance, you said that Greece was broke.
\nThe finances of Greece you said, were just a sorry joke.<\/p>\n
So in a natural way, one thinks of Illinois.
\nIt burns through dough it doesn’t have, ignores the hoi polloi.
\nRanking last of 50 states, with great financial stress,
\nIllinois sure has the need, to exorcise the mess.<\/p>\n
There is of course a way … to save poor Illinois.
\nTo move up from the rank of 50 … rank 14 we might enjoy.
\nThere are 13 states in Greece, let’s add one more state.
\nIllinois would blend right in, ranked at 14 would look great.<\/p>\n
