BASKET CASE lyrics

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
