Behold the once mighty Bear Sterns
One haughty, now sold for pennies in turn
Its a bear market they say,
Which made Bear Sterns fall away.
The Bulls were rampaging ,
for many a year or two.
Now its the bears turn,
to ravage me and you.
The tiger economies ,
are falling like pussy cats,
As exotic mortages ,
turn fearless men into scared rats.
In between , you will
find an occasional investment guru /ass too.
Promises to know it all, seen it all,
Pontification on TV for you.
—
Is this a market, we ask,
It seems like a jungle out there,
Leave us in peace, O Wise Ass,
Screw the bulls, and Kill the bear.
