Cloistered

He's always lived a sheltered life, never felt everyday people's pain When the economy crashed and a flood of tears came down, he was laughing, singing in the rain Oh, the money he would make, he could pile sky high And to those who lost everything, he gave the proper obligatory sigh He was taught this basic rule: When the market is slow, and you can buy low Do it, do it real fast Then when the market becomes robust, maximizing your hedge fund trust Sell quick and swiftly get the cash It's quite nice, living the cloistered life, he was often fond of saying And off the world's troubles, you can profit double Indeed, seclusion is a price worth paying
