Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Currency's crashing, lira hits the floor
What worked yesterday won't work anymore
Turkish companies learned the hardest way
Convert to dollars before the next decay
Pesos tumbling in Buenos Aires streets
Lebanese pounds making banks retreat
When your money melts like summer ice
Speed becomes your best advice

[Chorus]
Hard currency, hard currency
Grab it fast before it flees
Renegotiate, accelerate
Hedge expensive but don't wait
Multi-banks across the globe
Weekly models, change your probe
Hard currency, hard currency
That's your black swan strategy

[Verse 2]
Contract clauses need adjustment now
Currency swaps, make that vow
Dollar pricing when you can
Extend payables, that's the plan
Flip the normal cash flow game
Collect receivables, stake your claim
Argentina's survivors know this dance
Don't give depreciation a chance

[Chorus]
Hard currency, hard currency
Grab it fast before it flees
Renegotiate, accelerate
Hedge expensive but don't wait
Multi-banks across the globe
Weekly models, change your probe
Hard currency, hard currency
That's your black swan strategy

[Bridge]
Hedging when you need it costs
Hedging early, fewer losses
Banking bridges span the seas
Multiple jurisdictions, hold the keys
Quarterly planning's much too slow
Weekly scenarios help you know

[Chorus]
Hard currency, hard currency
Grab it fast before it flees
Renegotiate, accelerate
Hedge expensive but don't wait
Multi-banks across the globe
Weekly models, change your probe
Hard currency, hard currency
That's your black swan strategy

[Outro]
When the currency storm arrives
These are the moves that keep you alive
Lebanese, Turkish, Argentine pain
Teaches us how to break the chain
