The Same Old Odds
Timmy's team avoids reregulation

Ben talks about "unwinding" banks
    he's deemed too big to fail,
But so far has said little about
    who should go to jail,

Like Mr. Mark A. Walsh,
    the Lehman real estate guru,
Securitizer of all things
    including doggy-doo.

He'll do the same for Goldman when
    Lloyd Blankfein says the smoke has cleared –
When we assume securitizing
    should have disappeared.

But not on Timmy's "Rahm and Larry-
    Ben Bernanke" watch
Where they've done ev'ry thing they can
    to rev it up a notch

So wagering on default swaps
    in Trump's Atlantic City
Competes with the CNBC
    "Tips-To-Lose-A-Little-Bitty",

Where Buffet won't let Moodys rate
    swaps alphabetically:
Odds of fifty-five to one?
    "Again your Wall Street cup of tea!"
