(Sung to the tune of... "Santa Claus is Coming to Town")

You better watch out,
You better not cry,
You better not pout,
I'm telling you why,
Santa Claus is tapping,
Your phone.

He's bugging your room,
He's reading your mail,
He's keeping a file
And running a tail
Santa Claus is tapping
Your phone

He hears you in the bedroom
Surveills you out of doors
And if that doesn't get the goods
Then he'll use provocateurs.

So you mustn't assume
That you are secure
On Christmas Eve
He'll kick in your door
Santa Claus is tapping
Your phone

Office of Legal Counsel, Christmas party during the Carter
Administration.) --Eugene Volokh, UCLA Law School
