The Lyrics

"OBJECTION!" "Overruled" "But the prosecutor is playing with a rubber chicken!" "Overruled!"
Thought I had valid criti-iques
Of the prosecutor's spee-eech
How the conclusion he rea-eached was simply wro-ong
But instead, you waved me o-o-off
Like some high-and-mighty to-off
And my words faltered like a drunken so-ong

I know my way round all this legislation
Not a di-itz, I'm good in this vocation
Prosecu-utor just called in a clown
As a witness? That's insa-ane
He won't stop the ja-apes
"Sir, stop honkin' your nose" I sa-ay
I'm overruled agai-ain

Once had respect for law
But now that's out the doo-oor
Since all the defendants had a whole dance-o-off
Never thought I'd see the da-ay
When the jury would brea-eak
Into rappin', man, this is what I drink for

No, I don't think we've a good prosecution
Cause I thi-ink he wants pure retribution
Flingin' wo-ords like "you scumbag" around
Conflictin' int'rest's in pla-ay
Don't think he should sta-ay
But it seems that all you will sa-ay
Is "Overruled!" agai-ain
No, no

Put the screamin' and theatrics asi-ide
Cause this isn't a game of Phoenix Wri-ight
It's a little somethin' that I-I call real life
So please ca-an the accuser guy drop the pie-ies?

Quit it

Yeah!

Got to be kiddin', plea-ease
You can't still be ignorin' me-e?
But this trial has gone insa-ane, right? I'm right
We've got swearin' on the le-eft
And nudity on the ri-ight
This is gonna stretch so long into the ni-ight

I've got a tally for all my objections
That you've le-et through, so take an inspection
And you'll fi-ind that the number's real round
A big fat zero, oka-ay?
Isn't just toda-ay
For the past ten years here, I've cra-aved
No "Overruled!" agai-ain
"Overruled!" agai-ain
No, no

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Need a new judge
Cause you're a crap judge

And here is where I'd mimick the CSI: Miami quip to black if I was witty enough.

Very funny! Kinda cheating by taking on such a long song for the TV theme song round but it was still really good. I liked the line: "When the jury would brea-eak Into rappin', man, this is what I drink for" a lot!

You have conquered the ruling quite well I'll say.

I've been sick today while reading the Artistry entrants for this round,,,maybe it's just me, I cannot understand what is going on through this parody. You lost me TCOP.

(Artitry) I'm not quite sure how i feel about this one, TCOP. I think absurd and kooky works with certain ideas and OSs, but this didn't exactly come together for me. THe song is very methodical and structured, which completely contrasts with the weird concept of the spoof. It just didnt fit for me. Sorry, buddy. I'd try this idea again with a different OS.

I gotta agree with Blaydeman on this one. A very funny subject, and the title sub was great...I just think it got stretched a little thin toward the end. I think this topic with a non-8 minute long song would do that topic...-sunglasses- some real justice. YYEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!
