i didn't do it

does anyone plead

guilty

anymore. 

every convict in his cell

says he's

innocent, it's not

his fault

that the gun went off,

or that

he was over served at the bar,

which made

him crash

his car into a gaggle of nuns

crossing the road

at St. Thomas More.

i didn't do it,

they all say.

my mother didn't hug me enough,

my father beat with

a cane.

we had

no food to eat.

i had to steal and rob,

smash and grab

the department store

just to make ends meet.

i'm a victim of society.

you made me this way.

i didn't do it, honest, i',m

innocent, you hear 

even the ex-president say.
