The Lyrics

Welcome to the casino where you gamble, lose, and then they give you your money back!
It’s subprime,
my mortgage, it’s subprime.
For my big mansion, I’m
quite short on dough.
I am lost,
cannot afford the cost,
And soon I will be tossed,
Nowhere to go….

But have no fear,
They’re talking governmental bailout,
Now, I can stay here,
Hip hip hooray!

I’ll buy a brand new tux.
Taxpayers sure are schmucks.
I’ll stick them with the bills that I can’t pay.

It’s a crime,
but really, so sublime,
I gambled big this time,
But I’m okay.

I had doubt,
My time was running out.
But Uncle bailed me out.
He saved the day.

Play the odds,
Cause if you lose, you’re still a winner.
Someone’s stacked the cards,
To fall your way.

I’ll do it every time,
Won’t lose a single dime,
They saved my greedy butt
This lovely day,
They saved my butt this lovely day.
