Columbia Law Revue

Your Law

to “Your Love” by The Outfield

Got the bar exam - it's next Saturday
Holy Dorf this is a clusterfuck
So BarBri says that I gotta learn
What my prof skipped in Civil Procedure!
Columbia taught the law, right?
I don't wanna learn the law tonight

I wanna be a 1L - just one more time

Coulda made it with that girl from Torts.
Paid my professors to give me As
Isn’t Congress in Article II?
I already learned the law, right?
I don’t wanna learn the law tonight!

Should’ve picked another profession
I always wanted to be a singer
I’d do Law Revue forever
Wouldn’t sit through BarBri lessons.

Now I’m an associate at Gibson Dunn
My desk is circled by barbed wire
Miss, may I borrow that gun a moment?
I have to scratch a nasty itch in my mouth
If I could only reach the Bill of Rights!
Fuck secured transactions law tonight!

All this depression’s got me overeating
That diet was for nothing.
I should have paid more attention while in Crim.
All my hard work was done at the gym.
I just wanna eat Tasti D-Lite!
I don’t wanna learn the law tonight

I can feel my soul giving up the fight!
I just wanna clerk for Jesus Christ!
Professor Wu, this shirt is really tight!
Gotta love our First Amendment rights!
(spoken) "Fuck yeah! Community standards, biatch!"

We are (beat) fun time at SIPA tonight!
Fuck the motherfucking law tonight!
You’re gonna learn the motherfucking law tonight!
I don’t want to learn the law tonight!

Josie's on a vacation far away
Come around and talk it over
So many things that I wanna say
You know I like my girls a little bit older
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight

I ain't got many friends left to talk to
No one's around when I'm in trouble
You know I'd do anything for you
Stay the night but keep it undercover
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight

Trying to stop my hands from shakin'
Somethin' in my mind's not makin' sense
It's been a while since we were all alone
I can't hide the way I'm feelin'

As you leave me please would you close the door
and don't forget what I told you
Just 'cause you're right - that don't mean I'm wrong
Another shoulder to cry upon
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight
