The Trial
Michael Kamen; Pink Floyd; Bob Ezrin Lyrics

Good morning, Worm your honor
Greetings, your honor

The crown will plainly show
It's easily visible

The prisoner who now stands before you
The accused present in court

Was caught red-handed showing feelings
Was observed expressing emotions

Showing feelings of an almost human nature
Displaying emotions similar to humans

This will not do
This is unacceptable

Call the schoolmaster
Bring the principal

I always said he'd come to no good
I predicted his downfall

In the end your honor
Finally

If they'd let me have my way I could
If I had the chance

Have flayed him into shape
Discipline him severely

But my hands were tied
But I was incapable of doing it

The bleeding hearts and artists
The compassionate and creative people

Let him get away with murder
Allowed him to do whatever he wanted

Let me hammer him today?
Can I punish him now?

Crazy
Insane behavior

Toys in the attic, I am crazy
I behave erratically

Truly gone fishing
Mentally absent

They must have taken my marbles away
They took away my sanity

Crazy, toys in the attic he is crazy
He behaves erratically

You little shit you're in it now
You're in trouble

I hope they throw away the key
I hope you get punished severely

You should have talked to me more often
You should have communicated with me more regularly

Than you did, but no
But you didn't

You had to go
You had to act independently

Your own way, have you broken any
Following your own path, have you caused any

Homes up lately?
Recent damage to property?

Just five minutes, worm your honor
Give me a moment, please

Him and me, alone
Just us two, privately

Babe
Affectionate term

Come to mother baby, let me hold you
Come to me and be comforted

In my arms
Embraced by me

M'lud I never wanted him to
I never intended for him to

Get in any trouble
Get in legal trouble

Why'd he ever have to leave me?
Why did he have to go away?

Worm, your honor, let me take him home
Please allow me to take him home, your honor

Over the rainbow, I am crazy
I'm delusional

Bars in the window
Imprisonment

There must have been a door there in the wall
The wall probably had a door previously

When I came in
When I arrived

The evidence before the court is
The proof presented to the court is

Incontrovertible, there's no need for
Indisputable, no need to

The jury to retire
Let the jury leave

In all my years of judging
Throughout my entire career as a judge

I have never heard before
I've never heard

Of someone more deserving
Anyone who deserves more

Of the full penalty of law
The strongest legal punishment

The way you made them suffer
The way you caused them pain

Your exquisite wife and mother
Your wonderful family

Fills me with the urge to defecate
Disgusts me to such an extent

Since, my friend, you have revealed your
As you've divulged your

Deepest fear
Strongest fear

I sentence you to be exposed before
I order you to be made public to

Your peers
Your colleagues

Tear down the wall
Overcome the barriers
