Mr. Kerik Cashes In
(Sung to the tune "Brother, Can You Spare A Dime?")

Once I was a cop and deep in debt,
Being sued, lacking a dime.
Then Osama bombed downtown New York.
Terror now pays more than crime.

Rudy Giuliani is my pal.
We've made money bigtime
Touting Taser weapons to more cops.
Touting's helped our fortunes climb.

Exploiting 9/11, Bush named me
To keep illegal immigrants out
Rudy never told him how badly we
Prepared for 9/11; only how well we could tout.

Touting's what Bush needed to stay on;
Then I discovered that I'm
Just like Kimba Wood and Zoe Baird,
But make more millions touting crime.
