Threadneedle Street

[Verse 1]

The time has come not to be cautious

You must be careful not to make mistakes

For every half-hour in twenty-four

And operations rose faster than they did yesterday

And the lending rate's on your side

So there won't be much of a problem

Then past midnight, there is a rise

When everybody's asleep at home

He becomes nervous and sees a change

Today in futures

[Chorus]

Oh la la, oh la la, oh la la

Oh la la, oh la la, oh la la

[Verse 2]

Watch the markets move from a screen

In a pocket in a grey flannel suit

Read tomorrow's crash today and check your pulse

Base metals crawled onto the curb

And softs dropped in a summer term

Sugars melted in the mouth of a rude girl

Who knew a better option

She thinks for while

And it could be a long time before he thinks again

And then he looks at the papers and looks again

Today in futures

[Chorus]

Oh la la, oh la la, oh la la

Oh la la, oh la la, oh la la

[Outro]

Today in futures

Futures, futures, futures

Futures, futures, futures

Futures, futures, futures

Futures, futures, futures
