Ah yes, the loony left passes the bill that ORDERS sub prime lending. Way to go, Clinton..
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
I tried hard to be like you my pay way too low, for sure
I tried so hard to be you but the loan came through
now the bank keeps comin round, he's trying to take the house back now
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
they call me on the phone about three times a day
and then I hear them askin just how much can I pay
but this is a mess than I'm now thinkin needs reaching out to obama's men
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back

I wanna say it can't go on much longer I can't hold on very much longer
trying so hard yes it's true, but freddie I need the cash you'll come though

freddie freddie oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
freddie freddie oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
freddie freddie oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
I tried hard to be like you my pay way too low, for sure
I tried so hard to be you but the loan came through
now the bank keeps comin round, he's trying to take the house back now
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back
freddie, freddie, oh freddie mack, I'll never pay it back

Malcolm, I had the idea for this parody around the time Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac became hot news topics (around six months ago, give or take a few), but you put it to paper and Amiright before I could. I will have to give you 3 for pacing, 5 for sentiment (in lieu of "how funny" and 4 overall.
