When fools go to market the huckster gets money.

In The Market Of Ideas...
in the market there are good apples,
luscious ones and we buy them and we do not regret
the money that we part with,
there are rotten ones, who buys them must be fools
ditto with our creations,
we think what we make are the best
in the market of ideas
we rely on the proof of the goodness when others begin to buy
what we display
we think they are best
but look at the flies, look at the the emptiness of the market place
smell the stink,
then we decide not to display at all
we keep what we make as our own
after all, it is ours, and we protect them in our homes
not for sale
but for domestic consumption
we do not wish to compete
we are home now and then we are happier this way.

Cross Currents
in the beginning there was i'll show you mine if you show me yours
and she gave birth to a son who could sight read in any direction
the old huckster saw that her son and she had become as one of them
the arrow that flies in only the one direction crossed the sky above the garden
she took her son and by morning they were gone south into a land where the old
huckster dare not follow
the old huckster tipped his hat with a smile and moved on to other projects
but for her the days were long the nights not pretty
don't worry dearie the honeysuckle will soon be in bloom
then you will forget such garden dreams ever came to you
and her son became famous travelling the flat lands selling the notorious notions
from which the language of destiny flows
evenings found the two of them drinking in the park

It is better to make money in the straw market than to lose it in the money market.
Money Plays with Us
When we are without money, we eat vegetables at home;
When we have money, we eat vegetables in a fine restaurant.
When we are without money, we ride bicycle to work;
When we have money, we ride bicycle to exercise.
When we are without money, we walks to eat food;
When we have money, we walks to burn food.
When we are without money, we wish to get married;
When we have money, we wish to get divorced.
When we are without money, we acts like a rich;
When we have money, we acts like a pauper.
We say share market is bad but we keep on speculating;
We say money is evil but we keep on craving for it.
We say high positions are risky but we keep on struggling for it;
We say gambling & drinking is bad but we keeps on indulging on it.
O People!
Be content with whatever you have
And thank God for whatever you have

I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years.

The Trinity
i've had love
i've had responsibility
i've had money
i respect the money more
too little
too much
never right
people will take care
of the money for you
pay you for the duty even
the others
you are on your own pal
in a very volatile market
the waves look uniform
like fins maybe
i wonder what's for lunch

Oh Mr. Bernanke!
Oh Mr. Bernanke
Are we going to have that Rate-cut today?
Aha, you are the candy-man
Could wave your wand
Make the dying Market stand.
Ah, but it ain’t working anymore
The Market is a falling man
Oh Mr. Bernanke
You wave your wand
But it’s fallen over the stands!
Oh Mr. Bernanke
Swayed the Market just your own way!
But banks aren’t making money
The cuts to them are one too many
Candy-man, the Market won’t stand!
Got my only heifer and sacrificed
At the altar of Dow and Nasdaq, paid a high price
The Dow, oh it fell through the Year’s low
Now here I come, Candy-man
Look through your store
We need something more!

Money money
I am going to use it to buy me a cup of coffee
Money money
Is going to take me to Paris
Money money
Is going to buy me some new clothes
Money money
I am going to use it to do my laundry
Momey money

Money money

Money money
Is going to send me to the rich men's world
Money money is going to buy me a cellular phone

Generally speaking, we get the joke. We know that the free market is nonsense. We know that the whole point is to game the system, to beat the market or at least find someone who will pay you a lot of money, 'cause they're convinced that there is a free lunch.

Is not money...
It is life....

If fools went not to market bad wares would not be sold.
If fools went not to market, bad wares would not be sold.
The main purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many men as possible.

Powerless Money – The Hidden Secret
You can buy bed from money but you cannot buy sleep.
You can satisfy your lust from money but cannot buy love.
You can buy corrupts from money but cannot buy honesty.
You can buy cage for birds but cannot buy there cheerfulness.
You can buy schools for kids but cannot buy there playfulness.
You can build house from money but not a home from money.
You can buy paintings of artists but cannot buy there creativity.
You can buy medicines to kill pain but cannot buy feelings that give pain.
You can buy a coffin for a dead body but cannot buy a life for him.
You can buy flesh and meat to eat but cannot buy a life for them.
You can buy the beautiful flowers but cannot buy fragrance of flowers.
You can buy poems of poet but cannot buy emotions of there heart.
You can do many things with money
still you will see that you are helpless.
Life will no more be graceful
and you will see how money is so powerless.
Money is given power by those who want to rule you.
- By those who want to rule your body and mind.
- By those who want to make you dance as a puppet.
- By those who want to sale your talent in market.
And we are doing all this, making money more and more powerful.
And we forget that money is so powerless, may be we are a big fool.

Money, Money
Well Im down, face tomorrow
I drown in this fools sorrow
I hear the lies, who I choose
No alibis, never a trace Im blue
* well Im not so proud
Baby I can see
You take my money
And youre laughing at me
**(I aint no clown) (money money)
And youre no debutante
I wanna give
How much do you want
*** money
Look what youve done to me
Money
Hope on a third degree
Youre so dumb
You got all the protection
Number one
You only intend to clown
(repeat***)
Youre so cool
Playing glamour glamour
Full of school
But still in emerald
(repeat***)
(repeat*)
(repeat**)
Money money you think I cant see
Take it all and youre laughing at me
(repeat**)
(repeat*** twice)

Make That Money (Scrooge's Song)
When I was a boy
I never played with toys
Never had a friend
Never laughed or cried much
And when I was a boy
My father was a man
With a strict and sturdy hand
No soft touch
Make that money, make that money
Make that money run like honey
On your tongue
Gotta make that money
Make that money, listen sonny
Learn to sting before your stung
Now that I'm a man
Every penny has been planned
I'm financially grand
And perfectly greedy
Sentimental fools
I make all your rules
I've got your cash, got your jewels
They're all mortgaged to me
Make that money, make that money
Make that money run like honey
On your tongue
Gotta make that money
Make that money, listen sonny
Learn to sting before your stung
And I know
'Cause he told me so
Told me soI believe him
I still believe...
Give me that money
Controlling all your cash
I could make you live in trash
I eat pheasant, you eat hash
No philanthropy
But when it's time for me to croak
Bury me with all my dough
And where there should've been an oak
My private money tree will grow
Make that money
Said make that money
Make that money run like honey
On your tongue
Told me so
Told me so
He told me so

Money Matters? ? ? ? ?
Does really money matters'?
Yes! indeed, i say
you cannot live without it
Money is the means of living constantly
when you don't have it
where will you stay'?
you will end up begging
discriminated,
repelled,
no friend of the day
the glaring truth
this is the root of all evils
one should have money in order to rule
letting the fools obey
the erudite bow,
though this kind of belief is sick
making the Morality wreck...

I think the market is always going to be around. The goal is not to say, let's get rid of the market, because the market does render a huge number of services, and I don't want to have a fight about the price of something every time I buy a book or a bottle of water.
