This is the story of Piers

​

Made his fortune in Gears

​

Fixed assets coming out of his ears

​

Gets a bill in the post, he's in arrears

​

Checks his cash, confirms his fears

​

Telephones bank, manager sneers

​

Contacts debtors, barrage of jeers

​

Stocktake is good, but never easily clears

​

Can't sell his assets, that would take years

​

Deadline nears

​

He's in tears
