    LYRICS
    by John Emory
    There's a courtroom most defendants fear
    And it tries dozens of crimes a year
    Lonely lawyers, make it oh so clear
    They’d rather not be there
    There’s a man, who grew up in this town
    likes to tear everybody down
    They say Donald, you are such a clown
    But that just suits him fine
    His lawyers say: Donald,
    Judge will fine you
    If you don’t keep your mouth shut
    If you plan to say something nasty, better not
    Donald, wears a tie so long
    He looks like he just tied it wrong
    And he thinks about all the pretty girls
    That he knew sexually
    His fixer came on a cloudy day,
    bringing hush money from New Jersey
    He made it clear they could never say
    What Don had done with them
    His lawyers say: Donald,
    Judge will fine you
    If you don’t keep your mouth shut
    If you plan to say something nasty, better not
    Yeah, Donald used to fall asleep
    as the jurors told their stories
    You could see his eyes closed now and then
    He seemed to have no worries
    But he has never told the truth,
    he’s one dishonest man
    Which Donald’s base just cannot understand
    Late night, sulking in Trump Tower
    Donald fumes and frets past the midnight hour
    And dreams of retribution power
    But still he hears them say
    He hears them say, "Donald,
    judge will fine you
    If you don’t keep your mouth shut
    If you plan to say something nasty, better not"
    Donald, judge will fine you
    In criminal contempt
    But perhaps, that is precisely your intent
    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL SONG
    "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" is a 1972 song by American pop rock band Looking Glass from their debut album, Looking Glass. It was written by Looking Glass lead guitarist and co-vocalist Elliot Lurie.
    The single reached No. 1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box Top 100 charts, remaining in the top position for one week. It reached No. 2 on the former chart for four weeks, behind Gilbert O'Sullivan's "Alone Again (Naturally)", before reaching No. 1, only to be dethroned by "Alone Again (Naturally)" the week after. Billboard ranked it as the No. 12 song for 1972.
    The lyrics tell of Brandy, a barmaid in a busy seaport harbor town which serves "a hundred ships a day." Though lonely sailors flirt with her, she pines for one who has long since left her because he claimed his life, his love, and his lady, was “the sea.”
    The urban myth that Brandy was based on Mary Ellis (1750-1828), a spinster in New Brunswick, New Jersey, has been refuted by Lurie himself.
    Lurie was thrilled with the deeper meaning given to the song when its lyrics were used as a metaphor by a father explaining his life's choices to his son in the film Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, which came out in 2017.
    In February 1972, Robert Mandel was the Epic Records Promotion Manager in Washington, D.C. He received a test pressing of an album by Looking Glass, then a new group. He took the test pressing around to every radio station in the Washington/Baltimore region. At the time, WPGC AM/FM was one of the leading Top 40 stations in the country and was the number one radio station in DC. Harv Moore was the Program Director. He put the song into a one-hour rotation for two days and as Moore related at the time, "the switchboard lit up like a Christmas tree." He said that he had never received a response like that on a record in his 15 years in radio.
    Based on the airplay at WPGC and all the other Top 40 stations that followed, Epic rush-released the single of "Brandy". Based on requests alone, two weeks later, when the single finally hit the stores, "Brandy" was the number one record in DC without a single copy yet sold. Other stations around the country started playing it, and it ended up being a number one million seller. A year later when Moore celebrated his 10th Anniversary at WPGC, Looking Glass returned the favor and played at the bash the station held in his honor.
    Upon the release of the single, Record World called it "a tuneful, soulful effort deserving of heavy action."

      The Repubs told Nixon he was on his own. Tricky Dicky did the right thing by resigning (in all likelihood only after being guaranteed a pardon from Ford). He was misguided and sneaky but he was not the grifter, conman, & criminal that NPD Trump is.

    Another winner, well done. The fines will never stop him. To jail or not to jail, that is the question. If they could fine him 1 percent of his net worth, that might get his attention. They should never put specific dollar amounts in laws. They become obsolete. That $1000 limit was probably written a long, long time ago.

      Here you stand, / wond'ring what Judge Merchan will do to you.
      Sleepless now, / The nap you took is all through for you.
      The judge woke you u-u-p / just in time
      To hear him ru-u-le / on your latest whine. // It wasn't fine!
      Today, the judge will fine you, // And then he'll remind you // That if one more time you
      Defame in all your vicious ways
      His clerk or a witness, // Deny a juror's fitness, // He's gonna knock you witless.
      You'll be jailed for oh so many days!
      Troubled times / you brought the nation that we love, love, love.
      The Constitution / wasn't what you ever thought of, of, of
      When the voters said-d-d that / you had to go,
      Or when your hush mo-o-ney decided what / we could know. // We've said no!
      If you would take that answer, // We might have dropped the matter. //You just keep getting badder. // That's what brought us to today.
      Let's hope he didn't bluff you. // We all / have had enough. You // Have done more than enough, to
      Send you on your separate way.
