Not strictly IP related… but it is a parody of a copyrighted work, so I guess it counts!
From “Schiess All That,” the 2009 musical produced by Assault & Flattery at the University of Texas School of Law.
Summer clerkin’, had me a blast
Summer clerkin’, went by so fast
Met a judge who ruled for me
Met a partner who does IP
Summer days, no work all play
Then uh-oh, those summer nights
Well-a well-a well-a oomph!
Tell me more, tell me more
Man they filled me with booze
Tell me more, tell me more
Took us all on a cruise
Uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh
Had a Starbucks on the first floor
Venti lattes made us work more
Billing hours; watching the clock
My first paycheck was such a shock
Summer fools, we worked like mules,
but uh-oh those summer nights
Well-a well-a well-a oomph!
Tell me more, tell me more
But you dont gotta brag
Tell me more, tell me more
‘Cause it sounds like a drag
Shoo-bop bop, shoo-bop bop, shoo-bop bop, shoo-bop bop, shoo-bop bop, shoo-bop bop, shoo-bop bop, YEAH
Wrote a memo, they said its crap
Five mimosas, then got the clap
Deposed a witness; I had no clue!
Really effed up; our client’s screwed
Summer jobs, not qualified
But uh-oh, those summer nights
Woah oh oh
Tell me more, tell me more
Went on weekend retreats
Tell me more, tell me more
Bonded under the sheets!
How debauchrous law firms can be!
Can’t believe that they’re hiring me
We’ll enjoy our last year of class
Cause next year they own my ass
Summer clerks, now we’re 3Ls
A-nd oh, this year will be hell
We’re so screwed, we’re so screwed

As in all areas of Law, Patent Law evolves over time and is molded by cases decided in the Supreme Court and the Federal Circuit Courts. According to “Patent Law and Practice, Sixth Edition” by Herbert F. Schwartz and Robert J. Goldman, here are the major cases currently impacting patent law:
