Proxy

If it is a case of appointing a replacement,
I assure you, Mr. Filitov, that house won't be left vacant.

I have the perfect candidate, and he's just like you:
He likes the luxury of the lap, and takes more than he is due;
He sees no need to be effective, is not averse to transgression;
and, as long as he is unaffected, he'll consent to oppression.

Off you go now, Yuriy, leave the key under the mat,
and I'll install your proxy, my over-qualified cat.
