Is this the real price? Is this just fantasy? Financial landslide No escape from reality
Open your eyes Look at your buys and see I'm now a poor boy High-yielding casualty
Because I bought it high, watched it blow Rating high, value low Any way the Fed goes doesn't really matter to me, to me
Mama - just killed my fund Quoted CDO's instead Pulled the trigger, now it's dead Mama - I had just begun These CDO's have blown it all away
Mama - oooh I still wanna buy I sometimes wish I'd never left Goldman at all
---
I see a little silhouette of a Fed Bernanke! Bernanke! Can you save the whole market? Monolines and munis - very very frightening me! Super senior, super senior Super senior CDO - magnifico
I'm long of subprime, nobody loves me He's long of subprime CDO fantasy Spare the margin call you monstrous PB! Easy come easy go, will you let me go? Peloton! No - we will not let you go - let him go Peloton! We will not let you go - let him go Peloton! We will not let you go - let me go will not let you go Let me go (never) Never let you go - let me go Never let me go - ooo Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go S&P had the devil put aside for me for me, for me, for me
So you think you can fund me and spit in my eye? And then margin call me and leave me to die Oh PB - can't do this to me PB Just gotta get out - just gotta get right outta here
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah No price really matters No liquidity Nothing really matters - no price really matters to me
Any way the Fed goes...
