The chord progression is based on a song I wrote for Rasmalai in the 1990's. Spiffy new lyrics and improved counterpoint better the entire arrangement. I am finally satisfied, mostly.
lyrics
Where's that asshole lawyer
Mister state college law degree
Taking calls in the foyer
Meanwhile I'd like to change my plea
I stole a few script pads
to drug the neighbor's Havanese
Chronic barking had made me mad
I propose puppy pharmacies
This is semi-true
In fact truth can demean
no court
no dog
no pad
just fog
I'd like to strike the record clean
My expensive lawyer
Per diem and retainer fee
That should make me employer
Recession proof attorney
This wool suit is itchy
I feel so fake I feel disguised
I'm so nervous I'm twitchy
No wonder we despise these guys
