The Lyrics
Dedicated to all those overzealous prosecuting lawyers in family courts and juvenile courts everywhere. The OS was a 1960s anti-smoking Public Service Advertisement (PSA) on TV. I added an extra verse. OS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWm6PUGpfVU; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLBMwIcaKbA
Into the courtroom, a gleam in her eye,
Comes a sharp, win-hungry, j’accuse look,
Feared by defendants and witnesses alike
Cowed by the likes of
Connie Law! (Connie Law!)
Connie Law! (Connie Law!)
Connie Law!
Who are you accusin’, Connie Law? (Connie Law!)
How many bedrooms will lie empty tonight?
How many stats will you twist into a lie?
How many kids will be jailed because of you?
How many more will fry?
(Connie Law!)
Out of the courtroom, a notch in her belt,
Comes a cold, pow’r-hungry, I-gotcha look,
Feared by the kids and parents all alike,
Feared by all who come to cross the path of
Connie Law!
(Connie Law! Connie Law! Connie Law!)
Who were you a-grillin’, Connie Law? (Connie Law!)
How many charges did you pile upon one act?
What dumb teen behavior did you criminalize?
How many kids will miss school because of you?
How many dreams will die?
(Connie Law!)
Comes a sharp, win-hungry, j’accuse look,
Feared by defendants and witnesses alike
Cowed by the likes of
Connie Law! (Connie Law!)
Connie Law! (Connie Law!)
Connie Law!
Who are you accusin’, Connie Law? (Connie Law!)
How many bedrooms will lie empty tonight?
How many stats will you twist into a lie?
How many kids will be jailed because of you?
How many more will fry?
(Connie Law!)
Out of the courtroom, a notch in her belt,
Comes a cold, pow’r-hungry, I-gotcha look,
Feared by the kids and parents all alike,
Feared by all who come to cross the path of
Connie Law!
(Connie Law! Connie Law! Connie Law!)
Who were you a-grillin’, Connie Law? (Connie Law!)
How many charges did you pile upon one act?
What dumb teen behavior did you criminalize?
How many kids will miss school because of you?
How many dreams will die?
(Connie Law!)
