O gather thee now, Wall Street traders of death.
But, before work you must sign a waiver,
in case on the floor you do take your last breath,
no recompense can you then savor.
Go shouting your numbers and capital gains,
the NYSE crowd way thinner.
Who said to make money you have to have brains?
The stock market’s always a winner.
And why, in this time of the country’s demise,
does the Dow Jones continue to rise?
The answer, of course, should come as no surprise.
The players are rich and the game is their prize.
