BAILOUTS

I think that I shall never see
A bailout that will work for me.

A bailout that brings quick cessation
To rowdy market dislocation.

A bailout whose terms are meant to ease
Through Treasury securities.

A bailout that’ll make no bones
About absorbing subprime loans.

A bailout whose provisions are quellers
Of some misdeeds by shark-short-sellers.

Of course, despite the sunny mailouts,
Only fatcats gain from bailouts.
