Wrong Place... Wrong Time...

Man in a cell In his own hell Awaiting a trial to prove his innocence Saddest part is he is innocent He did nothing wrong But was cuffed on a dime Did nothing wrong Except being at the wrong place at the wrong time Trial finally arrives and he prays with haste His lawyeris flawless with a brilliant case The plantiff's eye witnesslying under oath His heart rapidly beats as the jury makes their vote They return with the verdict he is guilty on all charges The accused faints since he took it the hardest All the evidence points away the young guy But he was at the wrong place wrong time This story I've told is not only true But the next accused could be you
