All the cats and chicks can get their kicks at the hop
The Pro Bono Players are a group of attorneys, court commissioners and mediators who have performed song parodies (mostly about family law) for selected legal groups for years. (I joined the group about four years ago and, except for sex, skiing and walking around Paris, have never had a more enjoyable time in my life.)
Most, but not all, of their numbers are based on old doo-wop songs from the 50s and 60s, such as “My Guy,” “Duke of Earl” and “At the Hop.” But director-choreographer-songwriter Carol Gilbert doesn’t restrict herself solely to the oldies. She’s written a hilarious number about attorneys to the tune of “It’s Hard Out Here For a Pimp” and another about family law mediators based on “Be Our Guest” from Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast.”
This number is based on Connie Stevens’ “Lipstick on Your Collar.” It’s called “Cleavage in the Courtroom.”
Carol is concerned about copyright issues, and might not take it well if she knew I had posted this number performed last December. So if you’re listening, ASCAP, it’s parody, get it? Fair use. And if that’s not enough, I take full responsibility.
If there’s any interest out there, I’ll post some more. Just don’t tell Carol.
