The World of Finance
(Original song: The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel)
The green shoots of recovery are just around the corner, so perhaps it might be nice to sing a song to remind us about the old times of falling shares and people losing money of which we call, 'The World of Finance'.
I have got a pension plan
Bought from Jules my insurance man
I thought that I would be reaping
And all the interest I'd be keeping
Now my broker says my pensions set to fall
It's worth sod all
Within the world of finance
On Teletex yes I have found
Falling rates against the pound
My shares had tumbled like an acrobat
I knew I'd never get my money back
But Jules he says to be cool and don't be rash
He'll get my cash
Inside the world of finance
And in today's FT I saw
Ten thousand pounds I'd lost and more
My broker's trading across the board
Investing funds that I can't afford
Underwriting deals for worthless dodgy shares
He will not dare
Disturb the world of finance
Jules said I, why don't you know
Where the hell my money goes
Hear my words this is not a game
Now I find that I'm a Lloyds name
But my words like all my cash has all but gone
it's all been lost
In the world of finance
And all the MD's have done well
Through the pensions they mis-sell
Sold us something that we did not need
Wrecked our lives for all to see
By the crooks responsible for our shortfall
Equitable
Beware the world of finance
