Ding dong the fees are dead.

today is one small victory for all the yous and all the mees
today marks the end of overdraft fees
but the banks driven by greed
want to fool you with some trickery
they want you to sign up for overdraft fees

they call it protection   
they tell you you need it
a point so preposterous i'd never concede it
if i over draw my card 
and they foot my bill
they can charge me crazy fees and you and i know they will 
but if i overdraft my card
it necessarily means i don't have the money
to pay them their fees
it's a catch 22
don't get caught by the 

greedy banks want you to sign up for overdraft fees
read the print 34 dollars for over draft fees 

if you over draft a buck
34 dollars
if you over draft a cent 
35 dollars
