WHAT’S All THE HUBBUB BUB?
Where was Solomon when the battle began?
I guess the Biblical hero got wise and picked up and ran
Where was Solomon when a man wanted his property and so did she
And there seemed no way to get them to agree
The State’s attorney stood stoically before the darkened robe
And then the two litigant’s lawyers will be granted each to probe
But your honor……. but Solomon,……… but the baby boy
Couldst grow to bring such un-clouded joy
So he wanted what he wanted if the court complied
And she wanted that baby so on the stand she lied
He knew what happened, and would happen now
She knew what happened, and if it were to happen, how?
All this hubbub about a kid who ain’t even mine
Yeah, well your daughter is a football at the age of only nine
And I heard the two of them, separately had the same dream
discovefring that Roe vs. Wade, is two ways to cross a shallow stream
