On the Road To the Courthouse
I'm on the road to the courthouse
I'm just trying to get a break
I've been told the house needs fixing
That the work I've done is late
I've tried to stay up with all the codes
Just one slip up and I am fined
I'm on the road to the courthouse
It seems I might be out of time
I used to live out in the country
The rules were few compared to these
A house there could be falling down
Without there being penalties
I soon will know just what he'll say
Will I be found then innocent
Or will it be the piper that I pay
It is the former that I pray
I'm on the road to the courthouse
