OT: The day that Subprime Died
With most humble apologies to Don McLean.
The Day the Subprime Died
A long, long time ago... I can still remember How that yield spread made me smile. And I knew if I had my chance Those mohos 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 sale.
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."
Did you write some B\C loans, Did you blow bucks on the iPhone?, Did that nut Cramer tell you so? Do you believe in rate control, Can FHA save your borrower’s soul, Why is underwriting today so damn slow?
Well, I know you’ll have to cut those fees And you’re wondering who has moved your cheese. Bernarke’s on the news. You can’t afford the MBA dues.
I was a semi-rich middle-aged broncin’ buck With a master plan and a lot of pluck, But I knew I was out of luck 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.”
