1
The pound is sinking, the peso's failing
2
The lira's reeling and feeling quite appalling
3
The mark is holding, the franc is fading
4
The drachma's very weak but everyone's still trading
5
The market's bottom has fallen right out
6
And only the strong are survivors
7
Well, I fear my dear that it's eminently clear
8
That you can't see the trees for the forest
9
Your father was an extraordinary man but you don't seem
10
To have inherited many of his mannerisms
11
Oh, any of his mannerisms
12
The dollar's moving, the ruble's rising
13
The yen is keeping up which hardly seems surprising
14
The market's bottom has fallen right out
15
And only the strong are survivors
16
Hear me lover, I can't be held responsible now
17
For something that didn't happen
18
I knew you for a minute, oh it didn't happen
19
Only for a minute, your heart just wasn't in it anymore
20
The pound is sinking, the peso's failing
21
The lira's reeling and feeling quite appalling
