Finance

It's funny,
But I can never understand about
Money.

Sterling
Sets my brain whirling.

I am completely downed
By the Pound.

As for the Dollar
It makes me all hot under the collar.

My mind is a complete blank
About what goes on in the Bank.

In fact, all I know about the stuff
Is that there is never enough.

Notes

From PUNCH Magazine, Volume 213, September 3, 1947, p. 231.
