“The Casebook Connection”

[[to the tune of: “The Rainbow Connection”]]

MAN
Why are there so many
Cases in casebooks
But never a case about love
Cases are boring
And poorly written
But they’re what our days are made of

We read all these holdings
But I’d rather be holding
You in my arms every night

I think we’ve found it
The Casebook Connection
You versus me turns out right

WOMAN
I read these issues
But cry in these tissues
And wish that I had something more
And though you’re erratic
In answers Socratic
I love you more than I love the law

This feeling’s not fiction
In my jurisdiction
You keep my soul burning bright

I think we’ve found it
The Casebook Connection
You versus me turns out right

BOTH
Nothing’s preventing
Our heads from dissenting
But somehow we both feel this way
Our hearts are both beating
Our minds have a meeting
We sign our love contract today

Show me your objective manifestation
Of subjective intent – with a kiss

I think we’ve found it
The Casebook Connection
Legally binding… like this…

[THEY KISS]
