A Christmas Carol

Mr. and Mrs. Simple Sense where snuggling around the fire with care,
When a knock at the door disturbed our reverie

With a groan and a grunt I walked to the door
And who should I find but Blagojevich there

He said I know you’ve got money to spare,
And since you have given to the campaign I took extra care

To pay you a personal visit to just let you know
That if you pay to play to DC you might go

He mentioned that the hedge fund times are in trouble
So why not go to DC and make a bundle

He held out his sack and shook it at me
And I tossed in 20 grand you see

Cause going to DC might be some fun
But having the Gov on your ass is absolutely none

I wanted my streets cleaned and garbage picked up
So I gave him his bribe and wished him good luck

He said he would be back for some more
Once the second round of bidding got off with a roar

Seems it’s the season of giving in our Windy City
And giving and giving to our Pols without pity

For governors, mayors and Stronger take their due
In Chicago giving lucre is how business gets waved through

Sleep tight my children the grease is in place
To run and win the 2016 Olympic race

But alas it seems our trip to DC
Has been deep 6ed by Fitzgerald’s investigating glee
