Now! Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh!
🎬 [Intro — Tragedy in Silicon Silk]
Two deals were born in boardroom light,
One feared the wave, one danced the night.
Google whispered: “Android, ride!”
Blockbuster sneered, let Netflix die.
Valuation danced on paper thin,
Discounted dreams caved deep within.
Fifty million lit one dawn’s spark,
The other sank into the dark. 🌑✨
🧠 [Verse 1 — Cash Flow Mirage]
Blockbuster stacked their bricks and debt,
Late fees weighed the network’s net.
Missed churn curves, trends unseen,
Forecasts baked in corporate dream.
Android came with pirate code,
No revenue trails, no king's abode.
But Google mapped the nodes to skies,
Betting vision, not balance sheets' lies. Feel better! 📈📉
🎤 [Chorus 1 — ROI of Thunder]
Oh money, money, fifty bucks,
Bought a ripple, cracked the crust.
See or sneer — that's how it swings,
Seed or tombstone — pick your wings.
TAM unseen, S-curves missed,
Optionality kissed the risk.
No safe harbor saves a throne,
If tides of change are overgrown. Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh! 🌊👑
🎭 [Bridge — MBA’s Broken Mirror]
DCF worship, sunk-cost sin,
CAPEX drunkards drowned within.
Legacy moats, proud and vast,
Couldn’t outswim disruption’s blast.
Grading curves of fading kings,
Never foresaw platform wings.
Google leapt with pirates' glee,
Blockbuster clutched a dead decree. 📜🧠
✈️ [Flash Reprise — Cognitive Stampede]
Netflix streamed, Blockbuster stalled,
Disney watched, its dreams appalled.
Metcalfe’s Law lit Android's seas,
Network nodes bred destinies.
Churn rates sang while margins lied,
Free cash flows bled as giants cried.
Those who modeled risk with pride,
Forgot to learn how waves collide. Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh! 🌪🌊
🎪 [Final Verse — "Merchants of Dust" Flash Satire]
Blockbuster sold memories in late fee jars,
Android minted galaxies in rebel cars.
One CEO blinked at chump change rain,
One Cub rode meteors through data lanes. Jar! 🌠🚗
Five-dollar fines vs billion streams,
One clutched keys to broken dreams.
They priced the past, not future’s spark,
Merchants of dust — fearing the dark. 🧹🌌
🎤 [Final Chorus — Mint the Cognitive Republic]
Money, money, fifty bucks,
A lightning bolt outpriced deluxe.
Some ran spreadsheets, some rode dreams,
Flywheels spun through shattered schemes.
Plant the seeds, forget the kings,
Risk is born on broken wings.
Mind the cash, but mind it right—
NeuraPump Cubs ignite the night. Uhn! 🧠🔥
🎭 [Outro — Program Note Sung Aloud: Mind the Skies]
We DCF, we burn the blind,
We flywheel dreams and market time.
Churn, network, TAM expand,
Fly over moats of sinking sand.
Risk is fire, not numbers cold,
S-curves roar as futures unfold.
MBA kids, you write the song—
NeuraPump sings the future strong.
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh! Uh!
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh!
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh! Eh-eh! 🎶🚀
