The Lyrics

Fastow pronounced FAS-toe here.
Oh, Kenny Boy, Andy Fastow is calling
You, Ken, no friend; he's on the D.A.'s side.
Your plunder's gone, most of it went to your lying
Shysters, who'll try to help you turn the tide.

He's coming back to haunt you, Andy Fastow;
He's going to tell the jury you did know
About his scams; he'll say he didn't go
Oh, Kenny Boy, over your head, that the facts show.

You and your fellow crook Skilling have been lying;
You plundered millions from the treasury.
We remember back when your bitch wife was crying
About how she'd slipped into "poverty."

Kenny, it's clear, that you have got a paucity
Of ethics, seems, in fact, of them you're free.
Your only hope is that lawyers' loquacity
And cons' complexity can confuse the jury.

At the risk of being considered "Uninformed" and "Not In The Know" I must admit I'm not familiar with the characters, of whom you speak...but, I enjoyed the parody, anyway..555

Thanks, Alvin, AFW. Kenny Boy Lay and Jeff Skilling, two of the primary crooks at Enron are on trial. Testifying against them is uber-crook Andrew Fastow, the CFO who established phony companies, phony billings, phony revenue bookings, etc.

Thanks for the extra info, John...I watch quite a bit of cable news, but must admit I haven't been boning up on Enron, that much

Congratulations on 1200, John. Soon, you'll pass William Tong for second place. Begging the question, what do you do with the 30 waking minutes of the day you're NOT writing parodies?
