Lyrics:

Loooooaaaaaaannnnsss.....
Oh my credit is dropping
and they still keep calling
nothing else has changed
I can't pay you
Oh you must be crazy,
payments are monthly no
can't do this on my own
sallie mae,
I can't pay
off my student loans

they're calling me at 10
i'm strssing on the 9
I've barely even 8
i'm not so lucky 7
they ring again at 6
let me call you back in 5
what are they looking 4
i'm trying to pay all 3
called my mother 2
but i'm not the only 1

went off to school to get my education
little did i know debt was part of the equation
could of dropped out but that's a bad situation
if you don't pay up they'll garnish your wages

sallie mae and the government make bank
if i default
but i can't find a job
so that's not my fault

me and my boo yeah we wanna get married
my debt is a load that we both gotta carry
didn't know my interest rate would be 12%
payments just high as New York City rent

Oh, should I stand out on wall street?
would that even help me?
Not sure what I should do. Barack are you listening?
Oh, can I get a forebearance?
No help from my parents
I'm doing this on my own
Sallie Mae I can't pay off my student loans

@chescaleigh This is one of the first videos of yours that i ever watched...and that was over 3 months ago... i have watched and laughed at this video so much....that i've recently found myself singing this version of "Countdown" in the shower...word for word!!!..also, i'm a sophomore in college, so, student loans are ALWAYS on my mind. .i LOVE what you do Chesca...you always make my day. keep making these videos hon....great things are sure to follow you. =)



[chescaleigh]

@CecilBop003 thank you thank you!

[chescaleigh]

@emanii69 you're entitled to your opinion, but i think this is a great use of my talent. i wrote a song that is funny and resonates with people because it's about an issue that many people are going through. i spent over 10 hours filming and editing a video that closely mirror's beyonce's video that has since been viewed over 200k times and featured on Oprah radio, MTV's blog and in Good Magazine, so I'm very proud of my work on this video.

[littledeadmau5]

Ok that was your last chance woman. Now you leave me NO choice but to subscribe. I hope your happy with yourself.

[YemiontheTelly]

ROFL, "Should I stand out on wall street" LMAO LMAO. I bet Beyonce's little head thing was the hardest part to do.

[xCoolGirlZix]

You have a really nice voice

[javion90bri31]

this is stupid and isnt funny at all

[canadaguy666]

i felt like shit when i realized i was 8 grand in debt. but after listening to this, i quickly realized that american students have it much worse. an acquaintance has close to 30 grand in debt over there. YIKES

[belias360]

This is hilarious! And I'm about to graduate soon, I'm so scared now!!!

[ronettesren]

I listen to this at least one a week and get it stuck in my head while I'm in class!

[FranSkee2011]
