yes, lisa - and that is the whole truth, so help me god. judging from the silence, i put it to you that this court is currently in recess. no doubt my learned colleague will shortly return and hand out a sentence to us

Now the courtroom is quiet, but who will confess
Is it true Geoffrey sketched me? The answer is "yes"
Then read me the list of the crimes that are his
He asked for my mercy, he asked for a kiss.
And all the ladies go dry, and the judge has no wig
The artist must die for the sty in his pig
And I thank you, I thank you for doing your duty
You drew Mickey.One, in all of his beauty
Your vision is right, his piece is that long
under a foot would be mathematically wrong.

LA LA LA, LA LA LA, LA LA LA

so glad you found leonard's lost lyrics.
below are the first two drafts of muhammad ali.
