(Verlaine)
|
cry mercy judge. cry mercy. You chewed me up
|
once upon a time. Now, it's real neat watching you
|
court contempt. You are confusing you, I'm not
|
amusing me, cry mercy judge, this lie is guaranteed.
|
cry mercy. this jury's gone to seed. oh I suppose
|
you enjoy trying to put my fingerprints on all that
|
cold evidence that will convict you. Ain't that nice?
|
You are refusing you, you are amusing me. Cry mercy,
|
judge. I think the verdict's coming in. I guess you'd
|
call it some sweet sin. It's not the sound of things.
|
It's not the gift you bring. It's not the choice of
|
words. Cry mercy, Judge.
