Sound of Money

The investment industry, gambling in a scuba suit 
Interest rate risk, like blowing through a paper flute

Affairs of accounts, replacements for a lonely heart  
Billionaire bankers, glean you as financial art 

Subordinated debt, you’re an asset that can bond 
Dow Jones Average, you’re a mean of illusions spawned

Vested venture risk, your dead poet’s society 
Commercial competition, source of your anxiety

Free market futures, to soften your resistance
Reinvested capital gains, to edit your existence

Economic recession, when money goes on a diet
Capital gains taxes, when robbery is the riot

Asset allocation, a future of cherry picking 
Bear market declines, the sound of money ticking
