Unwarranted French-Bashing

Juror #3

Why are people like you always speaking negatively about
The French, yet a great symbol of the freedom that you tout
Was given to us by France – the Statue of Liberty
Your logic seems to be self-contradictory

Judge

Why did France give us a freedom statue? That’s easy
They hate freedom so they wanted it out of their country
And to fill the space it took up, the French authorities had a vision
To build statues to haughtiness and socialism and soap’s abolition
Five minutes ago, people like you would be permitted to roam
The streets, but Congress just voted to make your new home
In jail, just because with the French you sympathize
In times of war, freedom of speech no longer applies
And about my last comment, in case you weren’t sure
We’re combating disrespect, and this could be a long war

Juror #6

Is anyone else here chilled to the bone
Because of what our new judge has said?
I'm certain that I'll have nightmares in bed
And be scared to speak freely on the phone
Has America's heart been turned to stone?
We’ll fall if we follow where we’re now led
This could be worse than the scare they called red
Anyone agree? Am I all alone?
Didn’t Key say it’s the land of the free?
In Franklin or Jefferson’s ideal court
Decent attorneys would not get cut short
When trying to prove facts to a jury
If this kind of culture has to prevail
I, for one, would rather be sent to jail

Judge

You’re getting your wish and going up the creek
You should be grateful that I allowed you to speak
Jurors three and six are both anti-American disgraces
The two alternate jurors shall now take their places
And the only remaining lawyer shall interrogate
The murderer. Please hurry, it’s getting very late

Prosecution

You killed two people. Now tell me why.

Witness

I didn’t kill anyone

Judge

I’m hungry. Must you lie?
