    Friday Poetry Corner

    Do the Wall Street shuffle
    Hear the money rustle
    Watch the greenbacks tumble
    Feel the Sterling crumble


    You need a yen to make a mark
    If you wanna make money
    You need the luck to make a buck
    If you wanna be Getty, Rothschild
    You've gotta be cool on Wall Street



    You've gotta be cool on Wall Street
    When your index is low

    Dow Jones ain't got time for the bums
    They wind up on skid row with holes in their pockets
    They plead with you, buddy can you spare the dime
    But you ain't got the time


    Oh, Howard Hughes
    Did your money make you better?
    Are you waiting for the hour
    When you can screw me?
    'Cos you're big enough


    You buy and sell
    You wheel and deal
    But you're living on instinct

    You get a tip
    You follow it
    And you make a big killing

    Do the Wall Street Shuffle
    If you sell your Mother
    You can buy another

    I'd like to go to Bristol
    I'd like to see the balloons
    I'd like to see them roaring
    and sillouhetted on the moon

    I want to see them drifting
    through the sunday morning mist
    I'd like to see one soaring
    and dip and rise and list
    (\__/)

      Sink me

      They seek him here, they seek him there
      Those Frenchies seek him everywhere.
