Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Good morning Worm, your honor
The crown will plainly show the prisoner who now stands before you
Was caught red-handed showing feelings
Showing feelings of an almost human nature
This will not do
Call the schoolmaster
[Verse 2]
I always said he'd come to no good in the end, your honor
If they'd let me have my way, I could've 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
[Verse 3]
Crazy toys in the attic, I am crazy
Truly gone fishing
They must have taken my marbles away
(Crazy, toys in the attic, he is crazy)
[Verse 4]
You little shit, you're in it now
I hope they throw away the key
You should've talked to me more often
Than you did but no
You had to go your own way
Have you broken any homes up lately?
Just five minutes, Worm, your honor, him and me, alone
[Verse 5]
Babe
Come to mother, baby, let me hold you in my arms
M'lord, I never wanted him to get in any trouble
Why'd he ever have to leave me
Worm, your honor, let me take him home
[Verse 6]
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
(Crazy, over the rainbow, he is crazy)
[Verse 7]
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 of the full penalty of law
The way you made them suffer
Your exquisite wife and mother
Fills me with the urge to defecate
(Go on judge, shit on him)
[Verse 8]
Since my friend you have revealed your deepest fear
I sentence you to be exposed before your peers
[Verse 9]
Tear down the wall
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
(Tear down the wall)
Tear down
