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 |
