The Ballad of Barry the Rainmaker
November 13, 2008
Did you hear about poor Barry? He ain’t makin’ rain no more,
Cause the deal flow went and dried up like a Murray-Darling bore.
He was legendary, Barry, wide and deep was his renown,
For decades now he’s moved and shook and really lunched this town.
As a salesman he was priceless, indeed, he had no peer,
When he got his clients on the phone, their hearts would seize in fear.
For they knew that by the end of week, he’d seal it with a beverage;
They’d be hung and tied and buried deep, all financed via leverage.
