Threadneedle Street Paroles

Faster than they did yesterday
And the lending rates on your side
So there won't be
Much of a problem

Then past midnight
There is a rise
When everybody's asleep at home
He becomes nervous
And sees a change
Today Futures

Watch the markets from the street
In a pocket in a grey flannel suit
Read tomorrow's crash today
And check your pulse
Base metals crawled onto the kerb
And softs dropped in a summer turn
And sugar melted in the mouth
Of a rude girl A long time before he thinks again
And then he looks at the papers
And looks again
