The Courtroom

The Courtroom
As I sit here in the courtroom
I see others who are filled with doom
But for me I’m not to nervous
For god provides me with a great service
He reminds me things could be worse
I could be laying in the back of a hearse
I got to remember life will go on
Soon all my troubles will be gone
Even if I go to jail
I will receive some love by mail
Most others have it worse than me
The love of my parents I can see
I may have a pretty bad record
But surely you must take my word
If this is as bad as it gets
I’ll be doing cartwheels in double sets
