the advocate's plea - michel legrand lyrics

Loading...

(in the court.)

[president]
monsieur
will you speak for the defense?

[advocate]
monsieur le president
monsieur dusoleil
it’s with diffidence
i rise today
and very nervously
’cause the fact is
this is my first time
in the world of crime
so today is a big day for me

now, i should be cool
and i should be calm
but i’m wobbly as
a potted palm
as you can probably see
’cause i’ve never been in court before
and i’m thirty*four
so today is a big day for me
yesterday, at last, at last
i passed
passed
the bar exam
here i finally am
timid as a lamb
and i’m sweating and i’m scared
the fitting word is merde
i’m feeling rather unprepared

so i’m not much use
as a barrister
and i couldn’t feel
embarrassed*er
i’m sweating like
a pig in a wig

so kindly hear my plea
set my client free!

’cause today is a big day for me!
