International Shoe! (It's the jurisdiction song)

Can this suit be brought

In this jurisdiction?

Does it have a shot?

Could the defendant

Reasonably foresee

Being made to answer?

International Shoe!

[melanieahirsch]

From the time you arrive as a 1L

And crack open your very first book

There is more to read than can ever be read

More notes to take than can ever be took

Now we no longer credit Pennoyer

So we're left with a hole in our law

Now the question for you

Where the hell can I sue?

Let's consult International Shoe

I'm posting the lyrics in chunks: Jurisdiction! International Shoe! Wor-ld-Wide-V-Dub-Yuuuu And what about Burger King? Don't forget there's also Asahi! Jurisdiction! International Shoe! Wor-ld-Wide-V-Dub-Yuuuu And what about Burger King? Hey! I told you don't forget about Asahi! Jurisdiction! International Shoe! Wor-ld-Wide-V-Dub-Yuuuu Asahi! Asahi! Asahi! Asahi! Contacts, fair play, and substantial justice

Never mind. We recently started personal jurisdiction in Civ. Pro. The "nonsensical fact pattern" is from World-Wide Volkswagen v. Woodson!

lol

[genius11433]

What did the guy say? I can surmise that it is some nonsensical fact pattern, but I'd greatly appreciate if someone told me what the speech actually said.
