Jury Jive

The Bar and Grill Singers

I need felons, they need me
A reasonable doubt for a reasonable fee
Caught in a crime but you can't do the time
A pro is what you need so turn to me

You weren't there when he was shot
Whoops, that confession doesn't help you a lot
Move to suppress you were under duress
On second thought you better cop a plea

Well, clients who pay commit crimes everyday
So send them my way because I always say:
"A wealthy client's never guilty"
Try it and see!
Prove it Mr. Prosecutor

Misdemeanors ain't my style
I'm holding out for a televised trial
Fortune and fame are the name of game
And then I'll be star on Court TV

You know, he wasn't there (Witnesses!)
I mean he didn't pull the trigger (Fingerprints!)
Well, if he did it was done in self-defense
The victim is the one who is to blame (Talk it boy!)
Circumstantial evidence -
The prosecution's case really makes no sense
A DNA test - Statistics at best!
They can't even find the right dead body

Your alibi's strong but things can go wrong
And it may come in that you're guilty as sin
And if the jury finds you guilty...End of the fee!
See you later perpetrator

I need felons they need me
I make sure they understand there's no guarantee -
Retainer's on file to cover the trial
It doesn't pay for the appeal, boy!
