| Chorus: |
Across the rooftops of this city We’ll take a moonlit tour Just as soon as you sign this, from the attorneys of parkour. |
For a start, we’ll climb a steeple that made all our legal people
Insist on your initials halfway through.
Could be deadly on the ledges so the legal language hedges
in the paragraph on page one twenty two.
(Chorus)
Sign the footnote on agility which waives our liability.
Jump over to the top of the next page.
By alighting like a butterfly, you promise to indemnify
Our business from the firms your heirs engage.
(Chorus)
Hard to see in this dim light; don’t bother reading it, just sign it.
The others are all waiting, getting cold.
As your fingers grasp at masonry
Please note you have no case if we neglected to inspect that it would hold.
(Chorus)
To traverse this murky landscape
Takes some practice with some skills.
To the traceur that means training.
To the lawyer, that means bills.
You agree to hold us harmless if you wind up lame or armless.
We’ll overcome each challenge in the courts.
Our waiver is prodigious, yes, ’cause people are litigious
Yet they still like to engage in daring sports.
(Chorus)
First you do need to sign this, from the attorneys of parkour.
