I kept my money in an old tin chest,
‘Till I saw a poster and it said invest.
If you want a bank that will never go bust
Then put your money in the Blue Chip Tmust.
We welcome the small investor. Ev'ry one a capitalist.
Verse 3
So I wrote to the Blue Chip right away,
And back came a letter the following day:
“Four per cent on every quid, If you invest it.” So I did
And I sat back waiting for the dividend.
They came alright, those chips were blue,
Verse 4
But along came a letter from the landlord too:
"Your rent is going up,” it said, "Two pounds a week.”
Well, | saw red... I wrote them a letter...
To Tentacle Ltd, {that was the name)
I wrote damn quick and said it was a shame.
Verse 5
But Tentacle said, “Well don't blame us.
We only act for the Blue Chip Trust ...
They own the property, we only collect the rent!”
To Blue Chip, ECL, I went
To ask them why they were putting up the rent,
Verse 6
A young man said, “Well it distressed us,
But we must think of our investors." "I do!” I said.
To pay myself my four per cent,
It seems I've got to raise my rent,
I can't afford the rent and so I told myself I've got to go.
A small percentage of me, has never had it so good!
