leeman brothaz - greed is good lyrics
real estate was booming
homes were on the rise
artificial rates
greenspan’s old ties
historic low rates
there were many homebuyers
consumers, banks and traders
all became liars
but that’s not true
we bankers ain’t liars
wall street was lending
for you fat consumer buyers!
a sub-prime mortgage
meant a no-doc loan
we helped main street
buy some sick–ss homes
you say wall street’s greedy?
that ain’t right
greed’s not the problem
it’s your lack of foresight
you corporate drones
took these neg-am loans
defaulting as a payer
now we crashed from market failure!
greed is good
people act how they should
greed is good
its where gordon gekko stood
greed is good
its all about the paper
and this is why we use
the middle cl-ss labor!
wall street made the cash
main street took the loans
two very different minds
nearly crashed the dow jones
mortgage-backed securities
credit default swap
these derivatives
were brought by wealthy wasps
first it was bear
then it was lehman
jp got wamu while
other banks were screamin’!
monetary policy
ran by ben bernanke
blows financial system
like his pocket hankie
deflation, stagnation
hyper-inflation
quant-tative easing
still no stimulation
too big to fail
meant a government bail
socialistic policy
is the latest tale
greed is good
people act how they should
greed is good
its where gordon gekko stood
greed is good
its all about the paper
and this is why we use
the middle cl-ss labor!
the h-ll with fannie mae
the h-ll with freddie mac
they’re a part of hud
and now it’s out of wack
why pay your mortgage?
it makes no sense
obama will forgive you
with the tax payer cents
recession, depression
little motivation
unemployment needed
for a modification
it’s called moral hazard
thanks to chief obama
stop the regulation
just catch that b—- osama!
wall street makes money
what else are we for?
answer that question
you liberal michael moore!
my hedge fund manager
was a giant pr-ck
so i used little birdie
to tell him he’s a d-ck!
we white-collar bankers
refuse to work at target
so here we are rapping
in the music market
the leeman brothaz rapping
we’re viral on the net
let this be a lesson
on how to get ahead
