The Prosecutor:
|
Good morning, Worm, Your Honour.
|
The Crown will plainly show
|
The prisoner who stands now before you
|
Was caught red handed showing feelings,
|
Showing feelings of an almost human nature.
|
Ah, this will not do!
|
Call the schoolmaster!
|
|
Teacher:
|
I always said he'd come to no good
|
In the end, Your Honour
|
If they'd let me have my way I could
|
Have flayed him into shape.
|
But my hands were tied,
|
The bleeding hearts and artists
|
Let him get away with murder,
|
Let me hammer him today!
|
|
The Defendant:
|
Crazy toys in the attic, I'm crazy
|
Truly gone fishing.
|
They must have taken my marbles away!
|
|
Chorus:
|
Crazy toys in the attic, he is crazy.
|
|
The Prosecutor:
|
Call the defendant's wife!
|
|
The Wife:
|
You little shit, you're in it now,
|
I hope they throw away the key.
|
You should have talked to me more often than you did,
|
But no, you had to go your on way.
|
Have you broken any homes up lately ?
|
Just five minutes, Worm, Your Honour,
|
Him and me alone!
|
|
Mother: *
|
Babe ........
|
Come to mother,
|
Baby, let me hold you on my arms.
|
M'lord, I never wanted him
|
To get in any trouble.
|
Why'd he ever had to leave me ?
|
Worm, Your Honour, let me take him home!
|
|
The Defendant:
|
Crazy over the rainbow, I am crazy
|
Bars in the window.
|
There must have been a door there in the wall
|
When I came in!
|
|
Chorus:
|
Crazy over the rainbow, he is crazy.
|
|
The Judge:
|
The evidence before the Court is incontrovertible,
|
There's no need for the Jury to retire.
|
In all my years of judging, I have never heard before
|
Of someone more deserving the full penalty of law.
|
The way you made them suffer,
|
Your exquisite wife and mother,
|
Fills me with the urge to defecate!
|
Since my friend you have revealed your deepest fear,
|
I sentence you to be exposed before your peers!
|
Tear down the wall!!!
|
|
Chorus:
|
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!
|
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!
|
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!
|
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!
