Oh Mr. Bernanke!

Oh Mr. Bernanke Are we going to have that Rate-cut today? Aha, you are the candy-man Could wave your wand Make the dying Market stand. Ah, but it ain’t working anymore The Market is a falling man Oh Mr. Bernanke You wave your wand But it’s fallen over the stands! Oh Mr. Bernanke Swayed the Market just your own way! But banks aren’t making money The cuts to them are one too many Candy-man, the Market won’t stand! Got my only heifer and sacrificed At the altar of Dow and Nasdaq, paid a high price The Dow, oh it fell through the Year’s low Now here I come, Candy-man Look through your store We need something more!
