A Tort Liability Song!

Coffee's hot
It spills, it burns
Lid pops off
On sharp right turns

Food is cheap
But it's no good
Only choice
In the neighborhood

And no real choice
You've got no legislative voice
So on these facts
Compensate you
For the tortfeasor's acts

Nutrasweet
In quantity
Tumors grow
In you and me

Pesticides
Genetic change
Three-armed apples
Meat tastes strange

And no real choice
You've got no legislative voice
So on these facts
Compensate you
For the tortfeasor's acts

Profit mo-ti-va-ted
But without a social conscience?
You should pay
Burned or o-ver-weight-ed
Is a cause of action
When a corporation
Doesn't act in a friendly way

And no real choice
You've got no legislative voice
So on these facts
Compensate you
For the tortfeasor's acts
