I'm Dreaming of a Black Friday

I'm dreaming of a Black Friday
Just like the ones we used to know
With markets crashing
And brokers thrashing
On the ends of ropes from Kensington to Bow.
I'm dreaming of a Black Friday
Just like the ones there used to be
With grown men sobbing
And bankers bobbing
All the way from Traitors' Gate down to the sea.
I'm dreaming of a Black Friday
Just like the ones when I was there
With earnings slumping
And tycoons jumping
From thirty-eighth floor windows everywhere. .
Yes, I'm dreaming of a Black Friday
With every chainstore that I see
May their profits crumble and crack
And may all their Christmases be Black.
