Well, life at a bank is somewhat uptight
We sometimes do wrong, and we sometimes do right,
But I know the Feds will never indict.
Thank Dodd I own Countrywide.

Chris Dodd in the Senate never did me no harm,
He gets re-elected with his Democratic charm,
But, if he sees laws broken, he won’t raise the alarm,
Thank Dodd I own Countrywide.

(Chorus)
Well, I got me a big House, I got me a Senate
If you serve a subpoena, I will poke holes in it.
And if there’s a law suit, you know I’m gonna win it.
Thank Dodd I own Countrywide.

Well, running a bank is the life that I chose.
I make a lot of loans and then I just foreclose.
It earns me lots of money, and that’s the way it goes,
Thank Dodd I own Countrywide.

The Banking Committee was set up to oversee
Predatory lending and outrageous banking fees,
But my Senator will never scrutinize me.
Thank Dodd I own Countrywide.

(Chorus)

When it comes to “conniving,” I teach the school,
I never was one of them altruistic fools,
And, when nobody’s looking, I bend a few rules
Thank Dodd I own Countrywide.

If your loan rate goes up, I really don’t care.
I ignore sad people who claim that I’m unfair
So, if you miss a payment, you had better beware
Thank Dodd I own Countrywide.

(Chorus)

Well, Chris Dodd got a really sweet deal from Countrywide,
And he took me by the hand and held me close to his side.
He said, “I’ll let you be if you keep me satisfied
And thank Dodd you own Countrywide.”

We Italians all learn young how to live and to negotiate,
When we do people favors, we know they’ll reciprocate.
Thank Dodd I own Countrywide.

(Chorus)
