Nostradamus Predicts:
The insidious speaking engagements of Larry Summers

Why'd Wall Street banks prepay to hear
    what Larry had to say?
Did Nostradamus forecast who
    would let them have their way?

It smacks of quid pro quo where many
    quid have been prepaid,
After Nostradamus leaked
    Obama had it made,

But was sure to end up picking
    as his failing bank advisor,
The former Harvard president
    and current Wall Street sympathizer.

Is it called insider trading
    when Nostradamus is the source
Of who'd write regulations
    that he's paid to not endorse?

But did Nostradamus let them know
    all Nostradamus knew?
That Citi shares would bottom out
    at little more than two?

That Obama would be sore enough
    to give his guy the boot
Upon learning quid pro quos
    keep Larry far from destitute?
