Those Judges Get On My Nerves
To be sung with Ginny Simms to Cole Porter's
"I've Got You Under My Skin"
(…I've got you deep in the heart of me.)

Those judges get on my nerves.
They forget who gave my start to me,
But now faint of heart
Would take the best part from me –
Those judges get on my nerves.

Now I get to choose who serves,
And despite the fact
Guantanamo hasn't gone that well,
Why should I not decide who's treated well?
Those judges get on my nerves.

It was so nice to be flaunting the right
   to lop off an occasional ear
In spite of The New York Times Laura reads me at night,
   which continues to bore me to tears,
Hating brutality –
Citing morality –
Now those judges, too, question what I do,
So they start throwing me curves –
Goldarn judges get on my nerves.
