If Martha and the Vandellas would sing about Freddie Mac, might it go like this?

[DFW]

FREDDIE MAC
Freddie Mac, Freddie
Ooh Freddie Mac
I want my money back
Freddie Mac, Freddie
Ooh Freddie Mac
I want my money back

I asked where to invest
They told me that you’re the best.
I sent my savings to you
Like I promised I’d do
But I lost my job in town
And there’s no other work to be found

Hey Freddie, Freddie
Ooh Freddie Mac
Where is my money back?
Freddie, Freddie
Ooh Freddie Mac
I need my money back

So I turn on C N N
About three times a day
I get sick when I hear what
They have to say
But this bankruptcy is ruining me
I’d like to shoot your C E O’s knee!

Hey Freddie, Freddie
Ooh Freddie Mac
Where is my money back?
Freddie, Freddie
Ooh Freddie Mac
I need my money back

You don’t love me
(Freddie Mac I need my money back)
You don’t love me
(Freddie Mac I want my money back)

I wanna sing
I’m not getting any stronger
I can’t hold out very much longer
Trying hard to pay the bills
But Freddie you disappeared into the hills


Hey Freddie, Freddie
Ooh Freddie Mac
Where is my money back?
Freddie, Freddie
Ooh Freddie Mac
I need my money back

1. It's like quicksand....quicksand....our debt is deeper and deeper

(Surely you can do better than I can :-) )

2. Laughing beats crying--if just barely.....

3. bleedin´ in the streets

Here´s an invitation
across the nation
a chance for folks to get fleeced
there´ll be banker´s steelin´
and homeowners reelin´
bleedin´ in the streets

They´re bleedin´ in Chicago
way down in New Orleans (especially there)
Up in New York City
Philadelphia, PA!
Baltimore and DC. . .
Don´t forget the Motor City!
Don´t forget the Motor City!

Doesn´t matter if you´re employed
just as long as long as you´ve got a pulse
so come on, every homeowner
put on your robe
and join the carnage around the globe!
