License To Steal |
| He walks into the room |
| He’s got a briefcase like a bomb |
| A smile on both faces |
| And he calls it aplomb |
| He wants a bite of your apple |
| Hands you back the peel |
| He’s fresh out of law school |
| He’s got a license to steal |
| When he offers his advice |
| You can guarantee |
| For several hundred dollars an hour |
| He will see just how many complications |
| Your life will reveal |
| He’s fresh out of law school |
| He’s got a license to steal |
| He’s an ambulance chaser |
| A waver of papers |
| He loves to mix with the movers and shakers |
| He’s taking from them |
| He’s taking from you |
| Lawyers love money |
| Anybody’s will do |
| Just take it |
| He’s poking his nose into people’s despair |
| When tragedy strikes he will always be there |
| Looking so cool |
| His greed is hard to conceal |
| He’s fresh out of law school |
| You gave him a license to steal |
| We’ve got seven hundred thousand attorneys at law |
| Nobody can tell me what we need them all for |
| We should throw them in chains |
| Chastise them and rebuke them |
| If it doesn’t work |
| We ought to take 'em out and nuke 'em |
| Blow a lawyer to pieces |
| It’s the obvious way |
| Don’t wait for a thesis |
| Do it today |
| Take him to the court of no final appeal |
| When you’re fresh out of lawyers |
| You don’t know how good it’s gonna feel |
