Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Portfolio builders stare at screens of green and red
Government bonds whisper safety, corporate yields spread
Municipal tax-free treasures, sectors three in line
Value hunters seeking gaps where prices misalign

[Chorus]
Slice the pie with G-C-M in mind
Government, Corporate, Municipal find
Relative value guides your allocation dance
Credit spreads and tax math give each sector its chance
Quality versus yield, the eternal romance
Sector allocation, make your money advance

[Verse 2]
Treasury bills sleep soundly, backed by Uncle Sam's might
Corporate bonds pay premiums for default risk bite
City sewers, school districts, municipal delight
Tax-equivalent yields make calculations bright

[Chorus]
Slice the pie with G-C-M in mind
Government, Corporate, Municipal find
Relative value guides your allocation dance
Credit spreads and tax math give each sector its chance
Quality versus yield, the eternal romance
Sector allocation, make your money advance

[Bridge]
When credit spreads widen, corporates scream cheap
When tax rates climb higher, munis rewards reap
Duration matches, ladders steep
Sector rotation while you sleep

[Verse 3]
Investment grade versus junk, the quality divide
Yield curves twist and flatten, sectors shift and slide
Benchmark your positions, let relative value guide
Rebalancing quarterly keeps portfolios aligned

[Outro]
Three buckets hold your future, weighted just right
Government, Corporate, Municipal sight
Relative value illuminates the night
Sector allocation burning bright
