It's very hard to estimate
Just what it takes to stimulate
A corporation, but we know
These people need a lot of dough,
And so, if no one else objects,
We'll cut them some humongous checks.
But stimulating them is tough.
A billion may not be enough
To spur a corporation while
It keeps its CEO in style.
It's possible we should explore
Some way that we can give them more.
We may just give them all we've got:
It takes a lot to get them hot.
