The markets went up
and everybody cheered
No pennies for the beggars
When they asked they were jeered

Then the markets headed down
and everybody screamed
Started pulling money out
First it trickled then it streamed

The analysts they say
We'll see green days again
Till then we join the beggars
Holding hands out in the rain
