NOT GUILTY
Let me go now, I need no persecution,
Prove me right,
In a way l deserve,
l deserve no stiff judgement,
But free marching orders,
Because l am not guilty,
Laying your hands on your highness table,
You delays judgement,
But calls youself a judge,
Standing tirelessly in this box,
With much innocence,
I am like a prisoner,
Prove it otherwise,
Still you delay judgement,
Let me go now,
I need no persecution,
Because l am not guilty,
Not guilty, not guilty,
The jury even knows,
They know that inside a box,
Stands an innocent man,
But still shouts not guilty, not guilty,
Still they delayed judgement,
Let me go, i need no percecution,
Because l am not guilty,
