Bankers sitting in an office just shooting the breeze.
One playing with a pen, one playing with some keys.
Regulation CC, Regulation DD.
This is a little too difficult for me.
Bank disclosures and interest rates,
Time deposits and business dates,
NOW accounts and proof machines,
Do they appear in Banker's dreams?
Teller machines, computers, and such,
Often times seems a bit too much.
Making money, by making loans.
At 5:00, it's time to go home.
Federal Reserve Boards at Federal Reserve Banks.
For Bankers, Lord, we must give thanks.
Annual percentage yield,
The vault we must shield,
From robbers, crooks, and phoney money.
Can a Banker's life be a little lonely?
Money, mo' money, mo' money, is that enough,
To show the busiest Banker love?
Opening new accounts, money by the bunch.
"How about it, Let's do lunch?"
FDIC insurance and managing profits,
Can the Bankers ever stop it?
The CAMEL asset system of asset evaluation.
New graduates coming from college graduations.
Cashier's checks from closed accounts,
Can really get a Banker down.
Bank examiners disguised as friends.
"Open up the bank and let me in!"
Defaults on loans and bank failures.
can make a person say, "To hell wit' ya!"
I see why Bankers make so much of legal holidays,
Cause BANKER'S TALK can send you to your grave.
