Translation
Bilingual
I'm smart as a fox
With bonds and with stocks
I've cornered wheat, alfalfa and rye
But now I'm tired of that hue and cry
Consolidated Love is all I buy
When put to the test
I like to invest
But I won't be a great financier
Love's the stock I like, it's free and clear
And it'll be blue chip if you chip in with me, my dear
Love's a bond that's pure
Its dividends are sure
This bond, if you get it
Is stable and yet it
Will grow if you let it mature
And, darling, have you heard?
The market's spiraling like a bird
As AT&T will
Go up and up we will
'Cause this new love of ours is gilt-edge preferred
ย
And, darling, have you heard?
A rise in stocks has just occurred
If sold in the dark, it
Will soon flood the market
Though love is common still and all, it's preferred
