Bill’s and Bill’s, Bill’s and Bill’s
It’s bailout time, for the Citi
Plead-​a-​ling, hear them sing
To-day, it is our bail-​out day!

Citi side­ways, Wall Street side­ways
Dressed in bank hol-​i-​day style
In the air there’s a feel­ing of Christ­mas
Bankers laugh­ing, taxes pass­ing
Wast­ing pile after pile
And on every street cor­ner you’ll hear…

Trill’s and Trill’s, Trill’s and Trill’s
It’s Christ­mas time for the Citi
Plead-​a-​ling, hear them all sing
“We want our own bail-​out day!”

*With all due respect and apolo­gies to Ray Evans and Jay Liv­ingston and their clas­sic, Sil­ver Bells, and for the truly clue­less, note that we’re abbre­vi­at­ing bil­lions and tril­lions to fit the tune.
