Well, when I was in law school, somebody put out "The Alternative Law
Journal -- Hastings' Only Intentionally Funny Publication," which
contained some pretty good parodies, including "Born for the HLJ" (The
Hastings Law Journal, TTTO "Born in the USA"), sample:
  
"I was . . . 
Born for the HLJ, and it . . . 
Goes on my resume . . ."

Others that I remember were "The Pre-Incorporation Blues," with some
interesting lines about tender offers, and "Money for Nothing" ("I
want my, I want my law degree . . .").  If you want, I'll try to dig
out a couple of issues.
