Nice parity on what gold does

from John Lothian -

In light of my CFTC metals testimony yesterday and with a wink to country music artist Tim McGraw, here are the lyrics of a song I call "Golden Voice":

Fort Knox Stores it
King Midas Touched it
The Magi Presented it
Thomas More made fun of it
Skeptics bit it
Alchemists tried to make it
The Forty-Niners Rushed it
Olympians Win it
The Noble Prize Awards it
Aristotle Meaned it
Kings are crowned with it
Fingers are banded with it
Old Couples Celebrate it
Ian Fleming Noveled it
The Romans Coined it
The Trojans weighed it
Isaac Newton Fixed it
South Africa Mines it
Governments Standardized it
William Jennings Bryant Mesmerized with it
Bretton Woods Valued it
Mints Bar it
Exchanges Trade it
Options Traders Call it
Jewelers shape it
IRA Accounts Hold it
El Dorado Hides it
Tutankhamun rested in it
Conspiracy Theorists Claim it
Glenn Beck Shills it
Goldman, Sachs it
Gold Diggers Marry it
Miners Dust it
Canadians Leaf it
Designers Lame’ it
Rocks Ore it
Prospectors hope for it
Dentists Drill it
Dealers Scrap it
Recyclers buy it
Brokers convert it
Refiners Acid Test it
Teeth chew with it
Retirees tell time with it
Gold Bond heals with it
Market Technicians Chart it
Ages are marked with it
Boy Athletes are Anointed with it
San Francisco Gates it
Workers are handcuffed with it
Executives are parachuted with it
Oldies Music Do Wops with it
Retrievers fetch it
Old people enjoy years of it

A Golden Voice
