Timid Timmy Geithner
He's got new bosses

Timid Timmy Geithner seems
    so terribly afraid.
Has he forgotten we're the ones
    who're making sure he's paid?

Not billionaire executives
    dependent on the Fed –
Not those Wall Street gamblers
    with whom Paulson's been in bed.

Our main concern is making sure
    we get our money's worth,
So dig a little deeper, Timmy.
    See what you unearth.

To what extent were Greenspan's
    lower int'rest rates to blame?
The old man hung around so long
    he must have known the game.

So take away their foul-ups
    and invest in what is left.
Then charge those greedy bankers
    with grand larceny and theft.

Rahm'll run the banks with
    two guys who hate each other,
One of whom he's sure we'll trust
    like Jimmy Carter's brother.
