[Vybz Kartel - Court Case lyrics]
Yo remember when mi roll inna di
Court 6: 15 fi my case
Full versace from di suit, versace boot
Versace lace it's like a presidential race
Di 'mount ah people inna di place
Mi see di whole ah waterford and
Southside an spanish town crazy face
Mi nuh come a court fi joke like Chevy Chase
(Whats di charge?) dem say mi arms
Up like a military base
Perry Mason a mi lawyer from di United States
Him know di good
Him know di bad is like a two sided face
Court in session, clark ah court seh in
A second judge appearing
Judge appear an start di hearing
Bible rise, people swearing
"Mr palmer, " said di judge
"Entertainer come to court too?"
(She say) "What u here today fah?"
Mi say, " Daat mi want fi know too!"
She say "Listen! Di officer dem
A charge yuh fi possession
Of a weapon, plus di
Ammunition, dats another felon
Plus yuh wanted in a
Connection with a murder"
(wha?) "Yuh have anything to say before di
Court goes any further?" mi jus seh
Mi never bring nuh gun dat day, Your Honour
Mi never bring nuh gun dat day, jury
Mi never bring nuh gun dat day, God know
Mi never bring nuh gun dat day
Go fi the police make him testify
Subpoen' di police make him testify
Cause he's telling all kinda lie
Mi lawyer say da case ya fi sign a lie
Aye, time fi trial
First witness to di stands: Steven McGregor
Top producer of di reggae songs
"Raise your hands, do you swear to tell di
Right an not di wrongs?" "yeah!"
"On the day of question tell
Me everything you plan"
"Your Honour when me did a
Drive go check somebody
When mi reach a Barbican
Mi get pull over by a squaddy
As him see di entertainer, him seh, "Who dat
Ah Addi? Long time mi want fi buck
Him up and deal with you shabby"
Him seh: "If a never day me
Make Madden pick up you body"
And ah tell him bout him ago
Make me career end up shabby" oBJECTION!
OVERRULED! "After that him rise the shotty
Put it inna di back of di car
Go pon him radio like a cabby
"Back up! Back up! Suspect is
Armed with a shotty"
When mi look mi see di whole
A Barbican and couple Ratty
To di station dem escort we me reach
Them say them a charge me
Mi seh, "Who fa murder that?"
Him seh "Shut up, and d'even ask mi!"
Dem seh dem ah go charge mi
Fi di shotty and di cartridge
Plus couple nine rounds
Speci' and some forties
Sitting in di court thinking 'bout Raheim
Jaheim an Shorty
Mi jus jump up an ball out seh:
Yo, next witness: Arresting
Officer- Mr mcGee, anuh police a DC
Want fi sink Addi di Teacha
From the Foster GC
Him want mi enterprise fi shut down like a PC
Testimony start, him ah tell Your
Honour fi him part, say "Hi!"m:
"Approach di suspect
Right away him start rant
Right away him get boisterous and
Cuss up bare claat
When mi see di rifle mouth
It skip di beat inna mi heart!" (Bloodclaat)
Di judge guh gimmie a look wah make mi weak
Diarrhoea like mi want fi make
A toilet with mi seat
Mi seh, "Lawyer, how it look?"
Him shake him head and kiss him teeth
And whisper, "If yuh get nuh bail
Leave town before this week"
Di world a crumble, reality start to soak in
Same time Your Honour say
"Court is adjourned until di 14th!"
(Wah) Mi fled di scene, pack up
Mi bag fi go El Paso
Worst mi know seh mi nuh guilty!?
Mi nah come back ya suh!"
Court 6: 15 fi my case
Full versace from di suit, versace boot
