To the tune of Perfect World by Huey Lewis and the News.

Everybody’s afraid of
the Post-ZIRP world
Where you can’t have
everything your heart desires
The perfect pitch won’t get the big raise
And the perfect plan won’t set the world on fire

Well, what you gonna do,
when one and one makes two
And the vision of the future
is low utility fees
No Co’s perfect,
not even a perfect fool
If you can’t serve results
They won’t keep the faith in you

Ain’t no bullsh!t in a post-ZIRP world
There weren’t no ZIRP world anyway
Ain’t no bullsh!t in a post-ZIRP world
But keep on dreamin’
of living in an all ZIRP world

Everybody’s got secrets
Now you know that it’s true
They talk about AI
They talk ’til they’re blue
Something happened to the pledges of trust
Down through the years, they began to rust

Now here we are, amid the fears and the laughter
Still waiting for our happily ever after
They’ll keep on dreamin’ as long as they can
Try to remember and you’ll understand …
