Lyrics Blood In The Water - Peter Davison , Legally Blonde the Musical (Original London Cast)
CALLAHAN
Now
when
you
choose
a
law
career
The
moment
you
embark
There
is
that
joke
you're
bound
hear
A
lawyer
is
a
shark
Ignore
that,
it's
simplistic
and
it's
dumb
Only
some
of
you
will
turn
out
sharks,
just
some
The
rest
are
chum
Our
topic
is
blood
in
the
water
Kids,
it's
time
you
faced
Law
school
is
a
waste
Oh
yes,
unless
you
acquire
a
taste
for
Blood
in
the
water
Dark
and
red
and
raw
You're
nothing
until
the
thrill
of
the
kill
Becomes
your
only
law
(spoken)
Mr.
... Shultz,
hypothetical
question.
Would
you
be
willing
to
defend
the
following
banker
accused
of
fraud?
(sung)
A
kind
old
grandma
took
her
savings
and
she
sent
it
Off
to
your
client,
all
she
saved
since
she
was
born
Well
he
promised
to
invest
it,
but
he
spent
it
On
prostitutes
and
heroine
and
porn
STUDENT
(spoken)
No,
I
would
not
want
to
take
that
case!
CALLAHAN
Wrong!
This
one
is
a
win
unless
you're
lazy
Grandma's
broke;
she'll
have
some
hack
from
legal
aid!
Put
her
on
the
stand
and
call
her
old
and
crazy
Your
guy
goes
free
and
he
can
get
you
high
and
laid
Look
for
the
blood
in
the
water
Read
your
Thomas
Hobbs
Only
spineless
snobs
Will
quarrel
with
the
morally
dubious
jobs
Yes,
blood
in
the
water
Your
scruples
are
a
flaw
(spoken)
Ms.
... Hupes,
hypothetical
question.
Would
you
be
the
right
lawyer
for
the
following
client?
(sung)
Say
they
offer
you
a
bundle
for
defending
A
famous
hit
man
for
the
mafia
elite
Seems
he
missed
his
chosen
prey
Killed
a
nun
and
drove
away
Running
over
three
cute
puppies
in
the
street
STUDENT
(spoken)
What,
you
think
I
wouldn't
defend
him
just
because
he's
a
typical
man?
CALLAHAN
(spoken)
Oh,
you
lesbians
think
you're
so
tough
STUDENT
(spoken)
But--
CALLAHAN
Oh
dear,
I
fear
my
comment
has
offended
Hard
to
argue,
though,
when
you're
too
mad
to
speak
Your
employment
will
be
very
quickly
ended
When
they
see
how
your
emotions
make
you
weak
So
what's
my
point?
I
run
a
billion
dollar
law
firm!
And
I
hire
four
new
interns
every
year
From
this
class
I
will
select
four
young
sharks
whom
I
respect
And
those
four
will
have
a
guaranteed
career
Do
you
follow
me?
So
I
wanna
see
... What?
STUDENTS
Blood
in
the
water
CALLAHAN
Exactly,
let
the
games
begin
STUDENTS
Hm-mm-mm-mm
CALLAHAN
Four
of
you
will
win
STUDENTS
Hm-mm-mm-mm-ooh-ooh-ooh
CALLAHAN
But
just
those
four
with
the
dorsal
fin
Yes,
blood
in
the
water
So
fight
and
scratch
and
claw
(spoken)
Yes,
Miss,
uh
ELLE
(spoken)
Woods,
Elle
Woods
CALLAHAN
(spoken)
Someone's
had
their
morning
coffee.
Would
you
summarize
the
case
of
State
of
Indiana
v.
Hurn
in
your
reading?
ELLE
(spoken)
Oh,
I
wanted
to
answer
the
puppy
question?
CALLAHAN
(spoken)
But
I'm
asking
you
about
the
assigned
reading.
ELLE
(spoken)
Okay,
who
assigns
reading
for
the
first
day
of
class?
CALLAHAN
(spoken)
You
have
guts,
Ms.
Woods.
Ms.
... Kenzington
(sung)
Let's
say
you
teach
a
class
at
Harvard
Law
School
A
position
that
you're
justly
proud
about
But
a
girl
on
whom
you
call
hasn't
read
the
case
at
all
Should
you
let
it
go
or--
VIVIENNE
(spoken)
No!
I'd
throw
her
out!
CALLAHAN
All
right,
then.
You
have
heard
your
classmate
You
have
just
been
killed
She
cut
your
throat,
so
grab
your
coat
Yes,
you've
got
guts
but
ALL
Now
there's
spilled
your
Blood
in
the
water
CALLAHAN
So
would
you
please
withdraw
And
if
you
return
Be
ready
to
learn
Or
is
it
unfair?
Oh,
wait
I
don't
care!
That's
just
how
I
rule
In
life
and
in
school
With
fear
and
shock
and
gall
CALLAHAN
You're
nothing
until
STUDENTS
Blood
in
the
water
CALLAHAN
The
thrill
of
the
kill
STUDENTS
Blood
in
the
water
CALLAHAN
Becomes
your
only
law
STUDENTS
Blood
in
the
water
CALLAHAN
Your
only
law
STUDENTS
Blood
in
the
water
CALLAHAN
Your
only
law
STUDENTS
Blood
in
the
water
BLOOD
IN
THE
WATER!
