(Hammill)You got some shares in a speculative venture, you got some stock in a gilt-edged bond, you stretched out tight by the terms of debenture, the game is on... You chase the bulls in eternal corrida, the thought of loss is more than you can bear, you scan the index for a market leader, a tip and a prayer, You better see daylight: night comes on the City so soon.

No people any more.Only the money.
