lyrics

BBC announcer sample:
“Since the ‘60s news from the City has mattered to more and more people. Nobody makes anything here except money”

John:
How do I explain what’s invisible
But it’s everywhere?
How do I make an honest living
When nothing is fair?
How do I know that I’m normal
When no-one cares?
(when no-one cares)

John:
I’m just trading in air
I’m just trading in air

Ruth
We are young, we are precious
All our lives are ahead
You’ve opened my eyes to a world I
Didn’t know that was there
You touched my hand, and I knew
We had riches to share
(riches to share)

John and Ruth:
We’re just trading in air
We’re just trading in air

David
Cheers to Big Bang, cheers to Thatcher!
She’s kicked open the door
No more controls on commissions
Foreign banks! LIBOR!
A toast to our friends as computers
Hit the stock exchange floor.
(stock exchange floor)

John, Ruth and David:
We’re just trading in air
We’re just trading in air

Interview samples:
“It struck me we were trading in fresh air…it was one of those moments when you think…this is madness!”
