On Trial Lyrics by Ross Golan

The Wrong Man

2019

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be on trial
For a dozen of my peers who don't wanna be here
They just wanna go home like I do
The prosecutor claims everything that I say
Is evidence that I'm living in denial
That I planned it all along, knew between right and wrong
That I killed the poor girl and our child
[Chorus]
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
I don't wanna be on trial
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
I don't wanna be on trial
[Verse 2]
They called me to the stand, made me raise my right hand
And swear to God that I won't be a liar
They asked about the gun found next to the first one
Why my prints were on the scene of the crime
The prosecutor claims everything that I say
Is evidence that I'm living in denial
When the jury deliberates, I'll worry, 'cause my case
Is leaning towards going to jail for a while
[Chorus]
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
I don't wanna be on trial
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
I don't wanna be on trial
[Verse 3]
The foreman read aloud the verdict to the crowd
They said my lacking remorse really sealed it
They recommended judge to put poison in my blood
And execute me before I can appeal it
When I got the chance to speak, I pled to be released
And that there is a man in black if you can find him
The courtroom filled with laughs, they cuffed wrists behind my back
The truth sank in, I'm an official pariah
[Chorus]
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
I don't wanna be on trial
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
I don't wanna be on trial
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
I don't wanna be on trial
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh
I don't wanna be on trial
