• did not kill my lovely wife.
    I did not slash her with a knife.
    I did not bonk her on the head.
    I did not know that she was dead.
    I stayed at home that fateful night.
    I took a limo, then took a flight.
    The bag I had was just for me.
    My bag! My bag! Hey, leave it be!

    When I came home, I had a gash.
    My hand was cut from broken glass.
    I cut my hand on broken glass.
    A broken glass did cause that gash.

    My friend, he took me for a ride.
    All through LA, from side to side.
    From north to south, we took a ride.
    But from the cops we could not hide.

    My trial lasted for one year.
    A year! A year! Just sitting here!
    The DNA, the HEM, the HAW!
    The circus-hype the viewers saw!

    A year! A year! Just sitting here!
    Did you do this awful crime?
    Did you do this anytime?
    I did not do this awful crime.
    I could not, would not, anytime.

    Did you take this person's life?
    Did you do it with a knife?
    I did not do it with a knife.
    I did not, could not, kill my wife.
    I did not do this awful crime.
    I could not, would not, anytime.

    Did you hit her from above.
    Did you drop this bloody glove?
    I did not hit her from above.
    I cannot even wear that glove.

    I did not do it with a knife.
    I did not, could not, kill my wife.
    I did not do this awful crime.
    I could not, would not, anytime.

    The glove you see it doesn't fit
    The lawyer says you must acquit
    Acquit because the cops all lied
    Acquit, acquit the lawyer cried

    The jury came back verdict in hand
    and silence fell across the land
    Not guilty, not guilty they did decree
    Not guilty, not guilty, you must set him free

    And now I am free, I can return
    To my house for which I yearn.
    And to my family whom I love.
    Now would you please return my glove!!
