The Bernie Madoff Saga
(Continued)
Bernie told Ruthie don't worry
I'll stand up and take the whole rap
Well paid lawyers will diddle the law courts
With some fancy legal pap
When it's over I'll take the fall
And you will end keeping it all.
Of course that don't mean I'll do hard time
I'm a hero but I ain't a dope
When they ask me to tell how I did it
I'll give forth with endless soft soap
With luck this canard will not fail
To win one more year out of jail.
But if I do time in some slammers
It will be in new upscale joints
There I'll turn out a best-selling memoir
Get upfront cash plus points
This I'll give to the poor as a dole
When its time to come up for parole.
The moral of Bernie's strange saga
Sure isn't that justice is blind
There's another thing here to consider
One felons like him oft' remind
That their penalties don't usually fit
The size of the crimes they commit.
