We Can Work It Out

I am taking Bankruptcy this term, yes, with the Red Lion herself, and for three weeks now, I can't seem to get the Beatles' "We Can Work It Out" out of my head when I read for class! It seems an appropriate anthem for a pre-petition debtor trying to avoid creditors' collection attempts. Strange how the mind works . . . In any event, it is a great song!

The Bankruptcy Lawyer's Anthem:

Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting, my friends.
I have always thought that it's a crime,
So I will ask you once again.

Try to see it my way.
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way,
There's a chance that we will fall apart before too long.

We can work it out. We can work it out.
