[Verse 1]
You got some shares in a speculative venture
You got some stock in a gilt-edged bond
You stretched out tight by the terms of debenture
The game is on...
[Verse 2]
You chase the bulls in eternal corrida
The thought of loss is more than you can bear
You scan the index for a market leader
A tip and a prayer
[Verse 3]
You better see daylight:
Night comes on the City so soon
Well, you say you are a christian capitalist
But you dance to a different tune
[Verse 4]
Jobs for the boys and dole for the shop-floor;
Rationalize, strip the assets and run
If the contract stalls, then you've just got to cop more, ain't Monopoly fun?
[Verse 5]
You made some pretty deals along the way
Judas and Faust are in accord
When the revolution comes you may be blown away
But I bet you'll end up on the board... Oh!
