For a bit of holiday fun, sing this little ditty to the tune of “Away in a Manger”:
The Euro’s in danger,
No jobs and no bread
But the ECB tells us
Don’t worry your head
The Dollar’s on the verge of
A steep fiscal cliff
Senators and the Congress
In an almighty tiff
And Britain’s not growing
The Pound’s on the rack
Had enough of the bust
When will boom time come back
But China’s still thriving
Building offices and homes
And copies of everything
From pants to iPhones
When will we recover
When will things be right
When will we all get through
An untroubled night
Two thousand and thirteen
Will bring us that peace
More sales and production
An income increase
And plenty of fun
And a spanking new car
And holidays on beaches
And nights in the bar
And beautiful clothing
And no sign of stress
And ski breaks in winter
And health and success
We can’t guarantee that
But we hope it comes true
So that Christmas wish comes
From MM to You
Merry Christmas everyone.
