Another new arrangement. If you are following these in process order, you will note that each take is played differently. This is Take 7. A couple of stumbled lyrics. Takes 1 and 2 [video 1037] show how that just-written process goes, and are ropey as heck. You never know what you are going to get as a first take. Video 1037 also contains, in its text section, the story behind the song. Here, I will place the lyrics, a bit lower down. Whilst here, though, if I may be so bold - I have several of my books still in print available on Am of the Zon, titles below. I mention it not for me, but for my most amazing children, who get any and all royalties when they reach 16. I won't live to see that day, and believe me - BELIEVE ME - they will be most grateful to you. Any solicitors listening to this - shame on you. Love and peace, Paul M 08.02.2023 '"We Are Solicitors"' - words and music © Paul Murphy / 2023 WE ARE SOLICITORS We are solicitors, and we love the rich Are you poor and need justice? Ain't life a bitch... Look at all our trappings - it's a great way to live Don't weep to us about your slum landlord - it's him we're siding with We are solicitors, and here's our main use To twist the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth You've been swindled of your savings? Well boo, hoo, hoo You can't afford our services? Screw you We are solicitors, look at all our fine clothes Have a look at my mansion, take a peek up my nose I live the good life, to the Nth degree There's so much cash to be made out of human misery We are solicitors, we are dirty scum You think we care about justice? Oh what fun All we want is money, that's how it is With no Legal Aid in the country we're raking it in hand and fist We are solicitors, the Devil's favourites Our collective noun is a Chamber of Sh*ts Guilty or innocent, we could not care less But if you're wealthy, rest assured, we will do our best We are solicitors, Lords of Manipulation We'll make sure we do very well out of your situation Are you too confused to think? Then sign this dotted line Oh look - half of all you own just became mine! We are solicitors, see the sign on our door? 'Come on in if you're loaded - Walk on if you're poor' It's only justice if there's zeros on the end We've got so much contempt for it, we no longer even pretend We are solicitors; Dolus in disguise Let your victim tell the truth, we'll prove that they're lies Mister Boss those young girls say you touched them inappropriately? You've done the right thing - by making that big cheque out to me We are solicitors, we love power and greed Another rape victim let down? Oh how our hearts bleed... Abused and battered children you say? That ain't our concern Because you've got no money; and we need it to burn We are solicitors, now hear what we say We don't give a goddamn, unless you can pay Call us if you're loaded - get lost if you ain't There's a church across the street - try your luck with a saint We are solicitors, or if you prefer Call us by our real name: Lucifer The law's not only blind, it's also deaf and dumb Stab your wife and we'll get you off - for the right sum We are solicitors, please remember our rhyme: 'Just give us enough greenbacks - and there was no crime' Like us, judges have got real expensive tastes We revel in injustice - and we let none go to waste - - - - Books by Paul Murphy: Comedy: The Private Diary of Emily Jade Murphy (Aged 0) The Continuing Private Diary of Emily Jade Murphy (Aged 6 Months, & Counting) Don't Look Sideways - The Life & Times of Bob Wordsworth Jottings Extremely Unlikely History of the World - Part One [978-1725718531] Extremely Unlikely History of the World - Part Two 1001 Ways To Cook An Aardvark Extremely Unlikely History of the United Kingdom Eric Wobble Finds A Time Machine The Fabbles: The So-Low Years A Christmas Carol (No, Not That One, A Different One) [979-8702679778] Lyrics/Poetry: Songs Without Music Journeys...
