Dm The D.A. is dressed to the nines A# G In the mirror, he practices all his lines Dm To his closing argument, twelve hearts beat in favor A# G I'm guessing that he read the morning paper Dm The headline reads "The man hangs" A# But the jury doesn't Dm F And everyone's looking for relief Dm F United States versus disbelief Dm G F Mothers cast tears on both sides of the aisle Dm F Clear your throat and face the world Dm F The verdict falls like bachelors for bad luck girls Dm G F Only breathing with the aid of denial Chorus: A# F Case open, case shut Gm A# F But you could pay to close it like a casket A# F Baby boy can't lift his headache head Gm A# Isn't it tragic? He glances at his peers sitting seven to twelve stacked On one to six, the gallery is hushed... Boys in three pieces dream of grandstanding and bravado The city sleeps in a cell, notwithstanding what we all know Hang on a rope or bated breath Whichever you prefer And everyone's looking for relief A bidding war for an old flame's grief The cause, the kid, the course, the charm, and the curse Not a word that could make you comprehend Too well dressed for the witness stand The press prays for whichever headline's worse Chorus Gm F Fresh pressed suit and tie A# C Unimpressed birds sing and die Dm C Can talk my way out of anything Gm The foreman reads the verdict A# Dm "In the above entitled actions, we find the defendant..."
