Those Devils
Sung to the Harold Arlen tune
"Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea"

You've hit fifty,
But you're shy of sixty?
He'll have you in between
   those devils and the deep blue sea.

Who's a devil?
Who will revel?
Wall Street and Kenny Lay –
How's that for a guarantee?

Just as soon as you are on their list
Year-end bonuses can be restored.
Kenny Boy and cohorts can't desist,
But they will welcome you aboard.

Junior's waiting
And anticipating,
That as soon as he retires,
He'll be paid off handsomely.
