You had an idea
An idea for justice

[John Rawls]
Justice is fairness, fairness for all

[Fairness - spoken]
Fairness for you, professor

[Rawls]
Please, call me Jack

[Simultaneous]
Rawls: Now I have my theory
My theory of justice
Fairness: Now I have found my philosopher-king
Rawls: Justice is fairness, Fairness is mine
Fairness: We'll live together in a philosophy kingdom
You're the greatest philosopher of all time!

Fairness: Now you have your theory
Rawls: Now I have my theory
[Together]
My theory of justicе
Justice is fairness, justice for all
Rawls: Justicе for you
Fairness: Justice for me
[Together]
Justice for all of society

[Chorus]
Justice no matter if you're big or small
Justice no matter if you're rich or poor
Justice no matter your color of skin
Justice no matter what class you were born in

You found the answer to our question
You're such an inspiration
Your idea will help our country in every generation
(Rawls: You're welcome!)
And even though we don't understand it
(What?)
'Cause it is so very hard
(Oh well)
We will give you a hero's welcome in Harvard Yard
He has his theory
A Theory of Justice

We have a theory, a theory, a theory

[Fairness]
Professor, let's get out of here and try it in that original position

[Immanuel Kant]
He has his theory

[Chorus]
We have a the-o-ry!
