A Lawyer Reward
The lawyer`s reward
A big tragedy happened churches were full of
kneeling people to make them humble in God`s eyes
they pray all day sincerely but nevertheless show
show observance for the plane that fell.
Prayers turn to anger compensation in the air no fuel
in the plane, we deserve money for our loss
the Lord is replaced by the aroma of moral reward to
overcome loss, lawyers, and vultures of death, step in
what could have been fixed in weeks takes years they
Fan the flame of injustice. Finally, a deal is struck,
but when the lawyers get them the fee there is less than
the mourners expected the buzzards had won a victory
the dearly departed have become something written in
a document to sign and money paid and the ambulance
chasers can seek out another target of an accident
