Electric guitar gets run over by a car on the highway

This is a crime against the state

This is the meaning of life.

To tune this electric guitar

An electric guitar is brought in to a court of law

The judge and the jury (twelve members of the jury)

All listening to records

This is a crime against the state

This is the verdict they reach:

Never listen to electric guitar

Electric guitar is copies, the copy sounds better

Call this the law of justice, call this freedom and liberty

I thought I perjure myself, right infront of the jury!

Is this a crime against the state? No!

This is the verdict they reach:

Someone controls electric guitar.
