The market for stock and share
For those having some change to
spare
One buys from a Jobber
But, only through a broker
The agent of the investor
Their language is straight and
clear
Those who come for divvy
Should come with equity
Those who come for (interest) the
price of money
Should come with loan stocks
Such is the capital market
The short, medium and long-term
market
The permanent loans market
