- THE BALLAD OF OJ SIMPSON
-
- tune: "The Ballad of Lizzie Borden" (Chad Mitchell Trio, 1961)
-
- Yesterday out in Los Angeles, Nicole and Ronald died.
- And they busted OJ Simpson on a charge of homicide.
- Well, he might not have done it but the media think he did,
- And Michael Jackson's volunteered to take care of the kids.
-
- 'Cause you can't cut your exes up in California,
- Contrary to all popular belief.
- No, you can't cut your exes up in California,
- You know it's gonna cause a lot of grief.
-
- Well, he might have used a razor 'cause the airline lost his gun,
- But he didn't use a hatchet 'cause THAT'S ALREADY BEEN DONE!
- Now poor OJ's in the jailhouse, and they're looking for the knife.
- For just ten million dollars, he might get off with life.
-
- 'Cause you can't cut your exes up in California,
- And then blame all the damage on the heat.
- No, you can't cut your exes up in California,
- With evidence upon the Bronco seat.
-
- You can sell a ton of crack and the cops will turn their back.
- You can rape and burn and loot; they don't want another suit.
- You can peddle phony stock like they do in Little Rock,
- But you can't turn your ex into a Pez(tm) dispenser.
- California is a far cry from DC.
-
- No, you can't cut your exes up in California,
- And then go out and drive around the town.
- No, you can't cut your exes up in California,
- It's almost sure to make the jury frown.

- (knuckles on guitar body): KNOCK KNOCK! :-]
