Disclaimer: Alex and Casey aren't mine. They belong to Dick Wolf.

Okay, first of all, I know they are both out of character here; the point was the song, not the characters. It's meant to be humorous, not taken seriously. The song is Nothing from A Chorus Line. Obviously, this is AU. Casey is a law student and Alex is her teacher. And for the record, I don't hate Casey; I just enjoy the snark. Enjoy!

I'm so excited because I got in

To the law school at NYU

I mean, I was dying to be a lawyer

Anyway, it's the first of class

And we're in the classroom

And the teacher, Ms. Cabot

Oh . . . Ms. Cabot

Anyway she has us stage a mock trial

Just so she could see what we know

And she says: "Okay . . . it's a criminal case

He robbed a bank and he's got an affirmative defence

By reason of mental defect . . . okay . . . go!"

Every day, for a week

We would argue ethics

Arguing

In legalese

Every day, for a week

We would try to

Win the case, win the case

And get him off

And I thought long and hard about what to say

To see what I had inside

I thought and thought and thought and thought

And I tried, I tried

And everybody's firing facts back and forth

"He's not responsible, he didn't know better."

And Ms. Cabot turns to me and she says,

"Okay, Casey, what do you think?"

And I said, "Nothing

I'm thinking nothing."

And she says, "Nothing

Could get a girl kicked out!"

They all thought something

But I thought nothing

Except the feeling

That this bullshit was absurd!

But I said to myself,

"Hay it's only the first week.

Maybe it's beginner's unluck . . .

Isn't that how the saying goes?"

Second week

More advanced

And we had another trial

This time we prosecuted

Ms. Cabot, she would say,

"Very good

Except for Casey

Please try, Casey, all alone."

And I thought long and hard about what to say

About how to win this case

Yes, I thought long and hard about what to say

And I tried to speak

But I said nothing

I had said nothing

And Ms. Cabot asked me

What on earth was wrong

I couldn't speak and

Ms. Cabot told me

That I should quit

Now while I was ahead

And Cabot kept saying,

"Casey, I think you should transfer out

You'll never be a lawyer, never!"

Jesus Christ!

I went to church

And I prayed to Saint Bridget

"Send me guidance, send me guidance

On my knees."

And a voice came from inside my head

Coursing through my veins

And a voice came from inside my head

Here is what it said:

"Cabot is nothing!

That course is nothing!

If you want something

Go find another class.

And when you find one

You'll be an actress."

And I assure you that's what

Finally came to pass

Six months later I heard that Cabot died

And I thought long and hard and thought some more

And I cried

Because I felt nothing

Was this okay? Review if you liked it!
