1851 - Europa faux-pas

Everyone should be in the eurozone
A common currency for different states
It's turned out to be such financial fun
So simple without the old exchange rates
Although I must admit to calculate
Which cent coin is which when held in the hand
Ain't easy, nor is it to inculcate
Prudence by the Greeks and Italians
They spend, they don't save, unlike the Germans
Yet the Germans must now spend to save one
And all other members, must stimulate
The European body, moribund
Though it seems right now, propped up by big loans
Like a dependent's fix of opiates
