Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Markets whisper secrets through supply and demand curves
Industrial giants playing games with mergers and reserves
Contract theory builds the bridges where incentives align
Mechanism designers craft the rules that make deals shine
Regulatory watchdogs analyze each cost and benefit
Impact assessments measuring if policies really fit

[Chorus]
BEPP - behavior, economics, policy combined
Antitrust breaks monopolies, competition refined
Public finance, taxation, spending federal and state
Health and energy, climate change - decisions can't wait
Political institutions shape the outcomes we see
Business economics sets the people free

[Verse 2]
Behavioral nudges guide consumers toward better choices
Pharmaceutical regulations amplifying patient voices
Energy markets fluctuate with carbon pricing schemes
Climate policy balancing environmental dreams
Political economy reveals how power shapes the game
Lobbying and voting patterns never quite the same

[Chorus]
BEPP - behavior, economics, policy combined
Antitrust breaks monopolies, competition refined
Public finance, taxation, spending federal and state
Health and energy, climate change - decisions can't wait
Political institutions shape the outcomes we see
Business economics sets the people free

[Bridge]
Fiscal federalism divides the revenue pie
Government spending priorities reaching for the sky
Competition policy prevents cartels from taking hold
Regulatory capture stories waiting to be told

[Verse 3]
Cost-benefit ratios determine policy success
Deadweight losses signal market distress
Externalities require government intervention
Public goods demand collective intention
Wharton wisdom teaches how these pieces interconnect
Economic theory meets reality's effect

[Final Chorus]
BEPP - behavior, economics, policy combined
Antitrust breaks monopolies, competition refined
Public finance, taxation, spending federal and state
Health and energy, climate change - decisions can't wait
Political institutions shape the outcomes we see
Business economics sets the people free

[Outro]
From microeconomics to the macro view
BEPP knowledge guides us through
