"American Pie" - Don McLean |
Long, long time ago... I can still remember
How that yield spread made me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
Those mofos I could finance
And I could pay my bills for a while.
But February made me shiver
With every good faith I'd deliver.
Bad news on my e-mail;
I just lost one more deal.
I can't remember if I cried
When I saw the Fremont slide
But something touched me deep inside
The day the Subprime died.
So bye-bye, B\C money supply.
Sent my package to four lenders
But they all asked me why.
And good old boys were on a crack induced high Singin', "This'll be the
day the loans die, This'll be the day the loans die."
And from mortgage banker Rick M., a tribute to the Rolling Stones' "Satisfaction":
I can't get no loans to close,
I can't get no loans approved.
Though I rant and I rave and I cry and I pray.
I can't get no, I can't get no.
When I'm sittin' at my desk
And a rep comes in to give a show
and he's tellin' me more and more
about some useless information
supposed to fire my imagination.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.
I can't get no loans to close
I can't get no loans approved
Though I rant and I rave and I cry and I pray.
I can't get no, I can't get no.
When I'm wastin' away my day
and rep comes in to say
how great his pricing's today
Well he can't be the man 'cause he doesn't pay
the full yield spread I need.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.
