Silence! The Court is in Session!

Wear the robes of a sage
Bring in the witness-cage
Start the drama of indignation
Silence! The Court is in Session!

The accused is yet unknown
But their team appears grown
My message hates interruption
Silence! The Court is in Session!

Lay down the rules and how
Raise up the morality brow
Don’t insist on free expression
Silence! The Court is in Session!

It is a fight for power and authority
Convert everyone into a liability
I am the judge and prosecution
Silence! The Court is in Session!
