brenda vaccaro & how now dow jones ensemble - a-b-c lyrics

[cynthia, spoken]
welcome, ladies and gentlemen to this guided tour
of your new york stock exchange
the shares we trade here are owned
by millions and millions of ordinary americans
just like you and howard hughes and j. paul getty

[cynthia]
the market is a ticker
a slender piece of tape
which notifies the public of its economic shape
which if it weren’t legal would be statutory rape
that’s perpetrated daily
from ten to half+past three
a simplе little business
it’s a+b+c

[cynthia, spoken]
“a” is for +n+lyst
thesе are highly sk!lled professionals
who spend their entire lives studying the market
sir, do you think the market is going up or down?

[+n+lyst, spoken]
we have confidence that if there is no decline
the market will go higher
[cynthia & tourists]
from here to saud araby
if johnson blows his nose
run and hock the baby
that’s how the money goes
oh yeeaaah!

[cynthia]
the market has a logic
whose wonders never cease
it’s basically predictable
and free of all caprice

it hits the floor in time of war
and lower when there’s peace
and all the smart investors
rely on lsd
a simple little business
it’s a+b+c

[cynthia, spoken]
“b” is for broker

[broker, spoken]
you’re thinking of buying us steel? great idea!
you’re thinking of selling us steel? great idea!
[cynthia, spoken]
he thinks it’s a great idea whether you buy
or whether you sell
how come? “c” is for commission

[commissions man, spoken]
three percent, two percent, six percent…

[tourists]
the deal below the table
and steal beneath your nose
watch your bloomers, mabel
that’s how the money goes
oh yeeaaah!

[cynthia]
the market is a hot tip
your neighbor will supply
in which you keep investing
till the price has hit the sky
so when you go to sell it
there is no one left to buy
it’s plunge ahead with edsel, and sell at&t
a simple little business
it’s a+b+c
[cynthia, spoken]
d is for dow jones
now we’ve all heard of the dow jones averages
you know when the dow jones is up, it’s good
when it’s down, it’s not so good

[kate, spoken]
hi, there, investors
this is the friendly voice of dow jones
reporting on the state of the bustling american economy
at 12 noon the dow jones averages are down 7.43
next report on the state of the bustling american economy
will be at 1 p.m

[cynthia & tourists]
they’re down on steel and carbon
and high on ufo’s
up your i.g. farben
that’s how the money goes

and money makes the world go round
to that we all agree
which brings us back to business
a simple little business
it’s a…
b…
c
