CITI Lives Richly *
Sung to the tune "Honeysuckle Rose"

CITI never sleeps
By rewarding veeps,
Who make sure the Congress reaps
Enough so it will not disclose
Anything still goes.

Most of that's kid stuff,
But they can play rough
Stealing billions off the cuff –
Backing Enrons and WorldComs,
Greasing Bushie palms.

Are they guilty?
Maybe you should read The New York Times –
They've paid billions
Paying off the victims of their crimes.

Then they raise the fees
On our spending sprees,
Anytime they please,
So we're paying through the nose –
CITI could foreclose.
