The US bemoans its fate, but we in the UK have also had something of a crash in the last three months, too. FTSE on 12 October: 6,730.70; now: 5,578.20 - 17% down.
It can't happen here
It can't happen here

That it can't happen here
Because I been checkin' it out, baby
I checked it out a couple a times, hmmmmmmmm
