I did not kill my lovely life.
I did not slash her with a knife.
I did not bonk her on the head.
I did not know that she was dead.
I stayed at home that fateful night.
I took a cab, then took a flight.
The bag I had was just for me.
My bag! My bag! Hey, leave it be!
When I came home with a gash,
My hand was cut from broken glass.
I cut my hand on broken glass.
A broken glass did cause that gash.
My trial lasted for a year.
A year! A year! Just sitting here!
The DNA, the hem, the haw!
The circus hype the viewers saw!
A year! A year! Just sitting here!
And lawyers charge hourly, I fear.
If I'm found guilty, I will appeal.
Appeal! Appeal! I will appeal!
I'll wheedle and whine, I'll cut a deal.
if it's not guilty, so glad I'll feel.
Did you do this awful crime?
Did you do this anytime?
I could not do this awful crime.
I could not, would not, anytime.
Did you take this person's life?
Did you do it with a knife?
I did not do it with a knife.
I did not, could not, kill my wife.
I did not do this awful crime.
I could not, would not, anytime.
Did you hit her from above?
Did you drop this bloody glove?
I did not hit her from above.
I cannot even wear that glove.
I did not do it with a knife.
I did not, could not, kill my wife.
I did not do this awful crime.
I could not, would not, anytime.
And now I'm free, I can return
To my house for which I yearn.
And to my family whom I love.
Hey, now I'm free, give back my glove!
