To "O HOLY NIGHT"
(Words by Placide Cappeau/Music by Adolphe Charles Adam/Translated from French to English by John Sullivan Dwight)
Parody Lyrics by Marcy Shaffer
Robo-'ly right!
The servicers were signing.
To pose to hose or foreclose your address.
So wholly bright!
The nerve of MERS* designing.
I rose to ranking
Banking Robber Baroness.
We banks, we ache.
To rake more take from your house.
We go opaque.
To shake you, make you break.
(Let them eat cake!)
Crawl on your knees!
You brawl?
We call the poorhouse!
Our might, we enshrine.
Our right to be elephantine.
Our right is not benign.
But our Right, it is Divine.
O lowly type.
Your gripe is academic.
Our devotees tweeze with ease all the laws.
So we can hype
the tripe we pipe each REMIC.**
It's such a breeze, we could squeeze Santa Claus.
The courts whose thwarts
of last resorts of your sorts
use fake-ed supports.
Are unmistake-ed sports!
(Eat our naked shorts!)
Bawl all you please.
But squall?
We follow your torts!
Our might we combine.
Our right to intertwine.
Our right to decline.
Our Right, it is Divine.
Fall on your fees!
But stall?
We swallow your forts!
Our might, quite Frankenstein.
(Bankenstein!)
Our right to cite what's thine.
Our right to fine.
Our Right, it is Divine.
Our Right, it is Divine.
