Jeff

Little Jeffery Sessions
sat and studied his lessons
he then had the thought
the law can be bought
he decided to take up the profession
rise up the old south tradition in condition of legal hate
now this rat
ended up wanting to be friends with a rich ally cat
share the stage
his face twitches as his eyes dart about the room
the cat grins
come over here
Jeff rat you can be the law
the cat has such a sly grin
but then again the rat wants in
the cat knows this
yes he is a sly old rat
rat friends can be useful doing dirty work
give him a badge turn him lose
with his law bending skill
ah but take care old rat
the cat grows fat

Nicely done. "And the rats and the cats, they was playin' peek-a-boo..." (Old Irish folk song)
