Hired Tongues: Lies, Lawyers and Limericks
A damnable lawyer named Stealth,
Had long been addicted to wealth.
With his snout in the trough,
He ripped everyone off,
In piling up pelf for himself.
There once was a lawyer named Snide,
Who was full of hot gasses inside.
His professional status,
Was made of mere flatus,
But rendered him swollen with pride.
There once was a lawyer named Dill,
Whose knowledge was virtually nil.
Though lacking in competence,
He still inspired confidence,
And I believe that he practises still.
A very daft lawyer, Misled,
Had just empty space in his head.
“I've no way of knowing
Which way I am going,
But I know I know nothing”, he said.
