The Riskmaster

The Riskmaster
Invested all his mattress money
Divorced his Prom Queen hometown honey
Scraping up his alimony
Friends think he’s a little funny

Needs a “world class CEO.”
Just another million or so
Get him to some real cash flow
So tears and sweat can IPO
For 15 years he’s been out gunned
Bankers demanding blood refund
Company’s looking Moribund
Even Draper will not fund!
He is the Riskmaster
Lives fast drives faster
Skates on the edge of disaster
He’s got a mission
Company vision
An artist’s ambition
Gut intuition
He is the Riskmaster
Team fights on against the trend
Had to lay off his best friend
Called a “recession” seems like “depression.”
Chapter seven. Is this the end?
But then a salesman shouts, “We got it!”
The company’s gonna show a profit
To think the papers rang, “quixotic”
The sky has opened astronautic.
He is the Riskmaster
Lives fast drives faster
Skates on the edge of disaster

He’s got a mission
Company vision
An artist’s ambition
Gut intuition
Fearless and free employee
No guarantee for the Corporate escapee
He is the Riskmaster
Lives fast drives faster
Skates on the edge of disaster
He is the Riskmaster
