The Land of Grimney - The Illustrated Adventures of Cora Pearl, aged 12

25 security checks
An 08 number dialled
Made to feel inadequate
Belittled and reviled

No-one there to answer to
Incompetence abound
None of them available
And some just not in town

An explanation fruitless
Excuses they've a plenty
It's not their fault again you see
Your bank account is empty

A manager is just not that
A number cruncher true
He has but one sole target
making money out of you

So if you run a business
Had troubles with your bankers
It's not unfair to tell the truth
They're all a bunch of wankers

While business strives to keep our jobs
The bankers brag and gloat
About the money they have made
While we keep all afloat.

Our battered business owners
Have backbones straight and true
While bankers and their owners
Couldn't hold a torch to you

We bailed them out aplenty
When they all got too greedy
But now the purse is empty
When our business is so needy

So here's a proposition,
When recession comes to pass
And bankers find they need us
We just say 'kiss may ass"
