Danger Doom - Basket CaseLyrics

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we all lived through the 70's The clothes, the music, the heartwarming but rarely amusing Ziggy cartoons Now, later, who are we to look at these two, fine young men And say, "You there - I sit in judgment of you!"

Uh, nothing further Mentok commands you to proceed, with your case! Just since some people, wear a mask Don't mean.. they.. did nothing automatically Now wait a second!
