an Illinois Christmas carol

I got this via e-mail. Wish I knew who wrote it.

This is to the tune of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen."

Wake up, old Rod Blagojevich, the Feds just rang your bell.
Just step outside ... and take a ride ... no time for extra gel.
They heard the tape ... there's no mistake ...
This state's half-way to Hell.
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, save Illinois! Oh, tidings of comfort and joy.

How could you, Rod Blagojevich, this really has me beat.
It wasn't nice ... to put a price .... on that there Senate seat
The way you threatened Wrigley Field
How can the Cubs compete?
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, save Illinois! Oh, tidings of comfort and joy.

Get real there, Rod Blagojevich, you're much too smart a man
Remember what this state has done to Otto, George and Dan.
If Durbin doesn't write a note
You'll join them in the can.
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, save Illinois! Oh, tidings of comfort and joy.
