The Prosecutor:
Good morning, Worm, Your Honour.
The Crown will plainly show
The prisoner who stands now before you
Was caught red handed showing feelings,
Showing feelings of an almost human nature.
Ah, this will not do!
Call the schoolmaster!
Teacher:
I always said he'd come to no good
In the end, Your Honour
If they'd let me have my way I could
Have flayed him into shape.
But my hands were tied,
The bleeding hearts and artists
Let him get away with murder,
Let me hammer him today!
The Defendant:
Crazy toys in the attic, I'm crazy
Truly gone fishing.
They must have taken my marbles away!
Chorus:
Crazy toys in the attic, he is crazy.
The Prosecutor:
Call the defendant's wife!
The Wife:
You little shit, you're in it now,
I hope they throw away the key.
You should have talked to me more often than you did,
But no, you had to go your on way.
Have you broken any homes up lately ?
Just five minutes, Worm, Your Honour,
Him and me alone!
Mother: *
Babe ........
Come to mother,
Baby, let me hold you on my arms.
M'lord, I never wanted him
To get in any trouble.
Why'd he ever had to leave me ?
Worm, Your Honour, let me take him home!
The Defendant:
Crazy over the rainbow, I am crazy
Bars in the window.
There must have been a door there in the wall
When I came in!
Chorus:
Crazy over the rainbow, he is crazy.
The Judge:
The evidence before the Court is incontrovertible,
There's no need for the Jury to retire.
In all my years of judging, I have never heard before
Of someone more deserving the full penalty of law.
The way you made them suffer,
Your exquisite wife and mother,
Fills me with the urge to defecate!
Since my friend you have revealed your deepest fear,
I sentence you to be exposed before your peers!
Tear down the wall!!!
Chorus:
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!

Marianne Faithfull (born Marianne Evelyn Gabriel Faithfull on December 29, 1946) is a British singer-songwriter and actress, considered an icon of the folk-rock and psychedelic music scene of the 1960s. She began her musical career in the 1960s, collaborating with artists such as Mick Jagger and John Lennon. Her debut album, "Dreamin' My Dream", was a major success in 1965.

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
It has been talked about for almost 3 years, rumored and it is hoped that sooner or later they will arrive at a collaboration, and now we are satisfied: the Catalan singer Rosalia and the American musician Oneohtrix finally announce the publication of a piece together!
