[Intro]

[Sales]
The client has blessed the number.

[Victoria]
The wording is not yet blessed.

[Sales]
They want the papers by noon.

[Victoria]
Pending legal review.

[Verse]

[Sales]
We flew them in from three horizons,
Rewrote the roadmap overnight,
Promised twenty integrations,
Now the finish line's in sight.

[Victoria]
You promised service without failure,
Signed away our only shield,
Gave them every future improvement
And drew no border on the field.

[Pre-Chorus]

[Sales]
It's only standard wording.

[Victoria]
Standard for whom?

[Sales]
The quarter ends tomorrow.

[Victoria]
Then tomorrow came too soon.

[Chorus]

Pending legal review,
Nothing moves until the language proves true.
Pending legal review,
What you sold and what we owe are not the same to you.
Call it caution, call it something you must push through—
The answer is pending legal review.

[Verse]

[Sales]
The client's procurement is restless,
Their patience is turning cold.
We cannot lose this signature—
We need the revenue enrolled.

[Victoria]
Section twelve outlives the ending,
Section nine has no defined shore,
Their audit reaches into our systems,
Their affiliates and more.

[Chorus]

Pending legal review,
Every promise must be something we can do.
Pending legal review,
Urgency will not make an obligation true.
Schedule every signing, every dinner, every view—
The contract stays pending legal review.

[Piano Interlude]

[Bridge]

[Sales]
Do you know what's at stake?

[Victoria]
Yes—that is why I read.

[Sales]
Then let them walk.

[Victoria]
Let them walk from words that doom us the moment they are heard.

[Final Chorus]

Pending legal review—
Not because I want the story to fall through.
Pending legal review—
Because the company must outlive the quarter too.
Bring me terms that match the promises we honestly can do—
Until then: pending legal review.

[Outro]

[Sales]
They asked for noon.

[Victoria]
It's twelve-oh-two.

[Sales]
What do I tell them?

[Victoria]
Pending legal review.
