> Sing this to "American Pie."
> Humble Pie

> A long, long week ago
> I can still remember how the market used to make me smile
> What I'd do when I had the chance
> Is get myself a cash advance
> And add another tech stock to the pile.
>
> But Alan Greenspan made me shiver
> With every speech that he delivered
> Bad news on the rate front
> Still I'd take one more punt

>
> I can't remember if I cried
> When I heard about the CPI
> I lost my fortune and my pride
> The day the NASDAQ died
>
> So bye-bye to my piece of the pie
> Now I'm gettin' calls for margin
> 'Cause my cash account's dry
> It's just two weeks from a new all-time high
> And now we're right back where we were in July
> We're right back where we were in July
>
> Did you buy stocks you never heard of?

> QCOM at 150 or above?
> 'Cos George Gilder told you so
> Now do you believe in Home Depot?
> Can Wal-Mart save your portfolio?
> And can you teach me what's a P/E ratio?
>
> Well, I know that you were leveraged too
> So you can't just take a long-term view
> Your broker shut you down
> No more margin could be found
>
> I never worried on the whole way up
> Buying dot coms from the back of a pickup truck
> But Friday I ran out of luck

> It was the day the NAAAASDAQ died
>
> I started singin'
> Bye-bye to my piece of the pie
> Now I'm gettin' calls for margin
> 'Cause my cash account's dry
> It's just two weeks from a new all-time high
> And now we're right back where we were in July
