Theme Song Lyrics
Title: "Paper Chase"
By: "Norman Gimbel & Charles Fox"
First years are hard years.
Much more than you know.
With good friends to love us,
we'll fill every row.
Stay open to all things,
Unknown and new,
Then one day, we'll all say
"Hey look, we've come through
The first years."
Opening Narrative:
(John Houseman's voice as Professor Charles W. Kingsfield, Jr.:)
"The study of law is something new and unfamiliar to most of you, unlike any other schooling you have ever known before. You'll teach yourself law but I'll train your minds. You come in here with a skull full of mush and, if you survive, you'll leave thinking like a lawyer."
