                                 No money in balance,
                                     please the extreme.
                                 Promote what is current,
                                     manufacture for fiends.

                                 Concoct what will profit,
                                     no matter what’s true.
                                 Convention in nonsense,
                                     the popular clue.

                                 No money in balance,
                                     no money in peace.
                                 No money in virtue,
                                     it won’t pay the lease.
