lyrics

Who decides when stock markets bend and then break?
Garden fence gossip plants seeds that'll shake
Poll the headless poultry for what to expect
With memories of bad news, anchoring effect

We all march to the pessimist light, in the dark lit by pessimist light
Two by two by the pessimist light, sparking fuses with the pessimist light

Forcasts self fulfill dour prophecy-
Retrospectively gaining legitimacy
Pseudo-cynically rabid pack bark and they bray
Lazily tone 'this was best yesterday'

When as a boy I had Werthers for free-
Now Werther's effect worries society-
Just one instance enough for base rate fallacy
As selective memory filters (out) victory
