Em
Good morning, worm your honour
                                  F
The crown will plainly show the prisoner
who now stands before you
                               Em
Was caught red-handed showing feelings
                                     C
Showing feelings of an almost human nature
              B7
This will not do.
Em
I always said he'd come to no good in the end your honour
          F#
If they'd let me have my way,
           D         A/C#   Bm A
I coulda flayed them into shape.
 G
But my hands were tied.
     G#dim7
The bleeding hearts
                    D/A
and artists let him get away with murder,
Let me hammer him today.

Chorus:
Em7                             B
Crazy toys in the attic, I am crazy
Truly gone fishing.
F#m D                    D#dim7
They must have taken my marbles away
Em7                              B
Crazy toys in the attic, he is crazy

You little shit, you're in it now,
I hope they throw away the key
You should have 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 honour, him and me, alone"
Babe!
Come to mother baby, let me hold you in my arms
M'lud I never wanted him to get in any trouble
Why'd he ever have to leave me?
Worm, your honour, let me take him home

Chrous:
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)

    Em
The evidence before the court is incontrovertible
        Am
There's no need for the jury to retire
   Em
In all my years of judging, I have never heard before
   Am
Of someone more deserving of the full penalty of law!
    Em
The way you made them suffer,
your exquisite wife and mother
Am
Fills me with the urge to defecate
Em
Since, my friend,
you have revealed your deepest fear
  Am
I sentence you to be exposed before your peers
Em
Tear down the wall!
