Ladies and gentlemen of the jury

We all lived through the 70's, the clothes, the music

The heartwarming but rarely amusing Ziggy cartoons

Now, later, who are we to look at these two

Fine young men and say, "You there, I sit in judgment of you"?

For being a drunken lush and bad as hell

Read the charge and thunk, sunk in a plush padded cell

Tempur pedic, craftmatic, adjustable

Go on try to stare at it, it's not that combustible

I accidentally spilled some kerosene

And dozed off with the L lit, doped up on thorazine

Matter of fact, make mine's a double

Few could see the point like a line through the hubble

Doom hit the eye in the sky with a pie

Shrink said he thinks, he believe he could fly

Spread his wings and flap like a goose

He'll show you how to do it if you help him get the straps loose

Diagnosed as shell shocked from totin' toast

And still could hear the bells rock, doc, another loading dose

He claimed he couldn't take the racket

Faked his own escape in a eightball straight jacket

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury

This, animal, here, this ursine fellow, unclean

He rejected society and retreated

To a cave in the woods to plot his vile, nod

And it isn't true that at these times

He often descends into a delusional state

Sometimes actually adopting

Another person's persona

I started punchin' once I saw some lungin'

He had me put on punishment for eating the last Munchkin

So now they got me down here near the dungeon

Nurses all arguin' over who's to do the spongin'

He requested time off for bugged behavior

And rhymed off of thug beats bumped by a neighbor

Who spoke with his fist and kept a mirror with a thumb hole

Cell twelve drum roll, ode to a gum sole

AOG like a captain that's retired

Rappers is space cadets yappin', be quiet

And that's an order, ship your daughters to my quarters, at once

And don't sip the tap water, dunce

He is the super, a stranger who talks to you

Maybe even offer tech support and walk you through

Villain, man in the mask, spit in the face

Show him where to go, inside a hand basket case

The defendant's confession

Uh, nothing further

Mentok commands you to proceed with your case

Just since some people wear a mask

Don't mean they did nothing automatically

(Now wait a second)

Your Honor, I'd respectfully like to have

A word with you in chambers

I request an immediate dismissal, on the grounds

On grounds that

Your honor I

Just as the mask, some people wear a mask

Don't mean that they did something
