A show number in the New York Financial Writers Association's 1984 production of its "Financial Follies" seems especially prescient. It's sung to the tune of "Be a Clown":
"Be a bank, be a bank,
How the Fed loves a bank;
Wear blue suits and black shoes
And there's just no way you can lose;
Take a risk, take a chance,
Son, you can't go wrong in finance.
...
When you're up you make out
And when you're down you're bailed out.
...
Just call on Uncle Sam and he'll make everyone whole.
Be a bank, be a bank, be a bank."
