Crooked Tree - Sting&Shaggy[00:00:02]

All rise for the Honorable Judge Burrell[00:00:09]

This court is called to order[00:00:16]

These charges are serious[00:00:19]

Stand up and face the bench[00:00:22]

How do you plead sir how do you plead[00:00:25]

Guilty as charged the Judge decreed stand up and face the bench[00:00:30]

I have some words to say to you before we recommence[00:00:36]

A list of crimes this serious I swear I have not seen[00:00:43]

In all the years that I have served[00:00:50]

Her Majesty the Queen[00:00:53]

Arson murder blackmail grand larceny and theft[00:00:57]

Drug dealing human trafficking I ask the court what's left[00:01:04]

Are there words of mitigation before I pass the sentence[00:01:11]

Anything that you can tell the court to add to your defense[00:01:17]

I faced the court thought long and hard before I gave reply[00:01:24]

There's something that you need to hear from me before I die[00:01:31]

The circumstances of my birth were something short of bliss[00:01:38]

I have this from my mother it was told to me like this[00:01:45]

The day that I was born she said[00:01:51]

The good Lord woke from slumber[00:01:55]

Looking 'round his timber yard[00:01:59]

He found he had no lumber[00:02:02]

Apart from some old twisted branch in shadows left to lurk[00:02:05]

He pulled it out into the light and set about his work[00:02:12]

She told me that the world should not expect too much of me[00:02:19]

When the good Lord carved my crooked soul out of a crooked tree[00:02:25]

When the good Lord carved my crooked soul out of a crooked tree[00:02:32]

Stand up and face the bench[00:02:40]

I've heard all you've got to say[00:02:43]

That there look on your face says you're guilty[00:02:46]

And now it's your judgment day[00:02:49]

I'm not asking for forgiveness[00:02:53]

I'm not proud of what I've done[00:02:56]

I did the things I had to do like any other mother's son[00:03:00]

None of us are perfect so remember what you see[00:03:07]

When the good lord carved this crooked soul out of a crooked tree[00:03:13]
