This is for everybody that's got a question
This is for everybody waitin' for an answer
When that oversight hearin' comes
Bring all your records
Bring all your counsel
Lawyer up
Lawyer up
Yeah
Chorus
Lawyer up, lawyer up
You had the power, now you gotta answer up (Yeah)
Who signed off? Where did the money go? (Yeah)
Put it on the record, let the people know
Lawyer up, lawyer up
No more hidin' when the questions get tough
Pull that chair to the microphone (Yeah)
You answer to the people, you don't own that throne
Verse 1
We got a Chairman at the table, everybody take a seat (Seat)
We got the names on the schedule, cameras on the street (Street)
You were loud at the rally, you were proud on the stage (Stage)
Now we need all your answers to the words on this page (Page)
Who gave the order? Who approved the plan? (Plan)
Who raised objections? Where's the paper trail, man? (Man)
Don't give me a slogan, and don't give me a show (Show)
There's a date on that memo, tell us all that you know (Yeah)
Big office upstairs, name across the door (Door)
Doesn't mean the public can't ask you for more (More)
You accepted the job, took the oath that day (Day)
Now explain all decisions and the price that we paid (Yeah)
Chorus
Lawyer up, lawyer up
You had the power, now you gotta answer up (Yeah)
Who signed off? Where did the money go? (Yeah)
Put it on the record, let the people know
Lawyer up, lawyer up
No more hidin' when the questions get tough
Pull that chair to the microphone (Yeah)
You answer to the people, you don't own that throne (Yeah)
Verse 2
Bring all your emails, bring your calendar dates (Dates)
Bring all your meeting notes, let the facts set it straight (Straight)
If the story checks out, put the proof right here (Here)
If it doesn't, don't expect the questions to disappear (Disappear)
We don't need no rumor dressed up as a case (Case)
We need names, times, numbers we can actually trace (Trace)
Read the whole message, let the witness speak (Speak)
Find out what happened, let the record run deep (Deep)
People worked their doubles while you worked that room (Room)
They paid all their taxes, trusted what you said you'd do (Do)
Now they're watchin' from their kitchen after workin' all day (Day)
And they deserve more than, "That's all I can say," (Say)
Chorus
Lawyer up, lawyer up
You had the power, now you gotta answer up (Yeah)
Who signed off? Where did the money go? (Yeah)
Put it on the record, let the people know
Lawyer up, lawyer up
No more hidin' when the questions get tough
Pull that chair to the microphone (Yeah)
You answer to the people, you don't own that throne (Yeah)
Bridge
Raise up your right hand (Hand)
Let the question land (Land)
You can have your counsel (Yeah)
We can still demand (Demand)
An honest explanation (Yeah)
A record we can trust (Trust)
Nobody gets a free pass (Nah)
Just because they governed us (Yeah)
Chorus
Lawyer up, lawyer up
You had the power, now you gotta answer up (Yeah)
Who signed off? Where did the money go? (Yeah)
Put it on the record, let the people know
Lawyer up, lawyer up
No more hidin' when the questions get tough
Pull that chair to the microphone (Yeah)
You answer to the people, you don't own that throne
Outro
Let the evidence speak
Let the questions come
Power comes responsibility
Lawyer up
