I’m dreaming of a red hot Lat Am
Just like the ones I used to know
Where Petrobras sold jumbos
and high yield was fun so
Yields, would reach their all time lows
I’m dreaming of a red hot Lat Am
With every sovereign pitch I write
May Brazil finally get things right
For god’s sake no more issuers locked up overnight
I’m dreaming of an Argentina mandate
Just like the ones I used to know
If not I’ll take Colombia
As I always enjoy Bogota
Even though, they lost Miss Universe
I’m dreaming of financing Ecuador
At better terms than the Chinese
May Peruvian corps get up off their knees
And start to issue, as I need more bond fees
I’m dreaming of lower new issue premiums
By now my friends are worrying about me
But if the Fed doesn’t surprise us
And investors don’t despise us
I will hear bonus bells in the snow
I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
Because new issue markets are boring as hell
May next year resemble 2012
Or I’ll quit banking, and sign up to Santa’s elves
