The New York Post is reporting that Vikram Pandit, current CEO of Citigroup Inc. (C) will survive in his position if the bank gets nationalized.  Below is Vikram Pandit’s rendition of Gloria Gaynor‘s “I Will Survive“:
_____________________________________________________________________________________
At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking they would never let
Our credit ratings slide
but then they cancelled all the flights
On the Citi corporate jets
And I regret
And I learned how to write off debt

And so we’re stuck
A Zombie Bank
I just sold Citi my hedge fund
And I have Chucky Prince to thank
I should have closed Derivatives
I should have sold off CDOs
If I’d have known for just one second
They could force my doors to close

Go on now go
Na-tion-a-lize
Just take the bank now
‘Cause we’re not solvent in your eyes
Weren’t you the one who tried to sell us Lehman Bro’s
Did you think I’d stumble?
Did you think I’d let that deal close?
Oh no, not I

I will survive
Oh, as long as I know Barry O
I know I’ll stay alive
I’ve got all my bonus stock
I’ve got so much more to mock
And I’ll survive
I will survive, hey hey
