Swipe it

Chip it

Tap it

I hear it everywhere

What about cash?

Try it if you dare

Mummbles of annoyance

from those who cannot wait

Cash transactions

are considered out of date

Everything moving fast

and nothing slow

People rushing about

What do they really know?

The allure of cash

The jingle of change

To modern consumers

seems all to strange

The value of money

is not the same

Just pick a card

A consumer's game

Bonus points and

Cash back scams

People falling victim

like slaughtered lambs

"Buy more stuff"

The message is clear

Charge it to your card

pay it off next year

Governmental plans

to keep the people poor

Give them what they want

and keep them buying more
