💸 THE PROFIT YOU MAKE — Indie Rock x Jangle Pop x Post-Punk 🎸✨

Ever tried explaining the stock market to someone who thinks “zero risk” is a thing? Yeah… this song is for them.

This jangly, guitar-driven banger dives headfirst into the chaotic casino called life — where your bank account isn’t safe, inflation eats your lunch, and every “hot tip” from your uncle ends in a crying emoji. 🥲

🎶 Expect:
🌊 Wavy jangle guitars that make you question your life choices
📉 Post-punk basslines plummeting like your crypto portfolio
🎤 Sarcastic vocals explaining why your “safe” fund isn’t that safe
💥 A chorus that hits harder than a market crash

Lyrics highlight:

“The profit you make… is the risk you take!”
(…and yes, Karen, that includes your ‘risk-free savings account.’)

Perfect for:
⚡ Late-night trading meltdowns
⚡ Existential crises over coffee
⚡ Pretending you understand ETFs at parties

🎧 Play it loud. Bet your emotions. Lose responsibly.

Lyrics:

You ask me where the money grows,
But listen close, ‘cause nobody knows…
Bank account’s “safe”? — well, maybe not,
Inflation’s hungry, eats the lot!

Shares and funds, they’re not the same,
One’s a single player, one’s a team game,
I try to explain but your eyes just shake —
“Zero risk, please!” … big mistake. 

Nothing’s free, no easy bet,
Even cash can drown in debt…
You want returns? You want to play?
Welcome to the game where risk’s the price you pay!

The profit you make… is the risk you take! 
Spin that wheel, it’s give or break!
The profit you make… is the risk you take! 
No free ride — there’s no escape!

A share’s like a rocket, fast and wild,
Can double in weeks or crash in style… 
A fund’s like a boat, safe and slow,
You’ll reach the island… but maybe so-so.

You say, “Oh no, I don’t understand,”
I draw little graphs, I take your hand —
“Here’s one company, here’s twenty inside,
One’s rollercoaster, one’s a safer ride!”

You: “I want zero risk.”
Me: “Hahahahaha… good luck!” 
No gold without the quake,
No gain without the stake!

The profit you make… is the risk you take! 
Play your cards, for heaven’s sake!
The profit you make… is the risk you take! 
Bigger dreams? Bigger heartbreak!

So choose your path, your moves, your stake,
Remember one thing for your own sake:
The profit you make…
…yeah, you guessed it —
Is the risk you take!
