Dead Presidents Page #10

Yeah

'Cause there's educated people

Runnin' the lives of our society

Makin' up the rules

Mr Curtis, you have been

lawfully tried in this court...

and found guilty on all charges.

Do you have anything to say on your own

behalf before I pronounce sentence?

Uh...

no, ain't nothin' I say

gonna get me out of this.

But things were gettin' bad

for me, and...

I had to do what I had to do

to s... to survive.

Maybe it was wrong, but l...

I certainly didn't mean

for anybody to be hurt.

Uh, Your Honour,

please consider before sentencing...

that my client served his country proud

in the Marine Corps.

As a matter of fact, he was

a member of an elite unit...

a sergeant,

decorated with many medals.

In fact, one of those medals

was the, uh, Silver Star, for valour.

I realize that my client had

a difficult time adjusting when he...

Excuse me, Counsel.

l, too, was a marine...

and I served my country proudly

in World War Il, a real war, I may add.

- Yes, Your Honor...

- I'm not finished yet, please.

I received the Purple Heart

at Guadalcanal.

Now, this young man has obviously

forgotten some very...

fundamental things like decency

and dedication and honor...

everything the corps taught us.

He is a disgrace to everyone

that has ever put on that uniform...

and I will not permit you or him to use

the Vietnam War as a cop-out here.

Anthony Curtis, for your

participation in this crime...

a crime that took the lives of several

innocent people, I do hereby...

sentence you to the custody of the

Attorney General of the United States...

for a period of 15 years to life.

Oh, my God.

These proceedings are concluded.

This court is adjourned.

"Life"? What the f***

he mean "life"?

After all the sh*t I did

for this motherfuckin' country?

What the f*** he talkin' about, "life"?

Man, f*** you! F*** you!

- Hey!

- Oh, Anthony!

After all the sh*t I did

for this motherfuckin' country?

You, remove the prisoner

from the court!

- You hear me?

- F*** you! F*** you!

- Restrain the prisoner!

Get him outta here! Let the record

show... Let the record show...

that a chair was thrown

at the judge.

Whoa, whoa

If you see me

walkin' down the street

And I start to cry

Each time we meet

Then walk on by

Walk on by

Make believe

That you don't see the tears

You just let me grieve

in private

'Cause each time I see you

I just can't help myself

I think about how tight we used to be

I break down and cry

Oh, baby

Walk on by

Hmm-mmm-mmm

I just can't get over

losing you

So if I seem

Broken in two

Please walk on by

Walk on by

Foolish pride

Is all that I have left

So let me hide

The tears and the sadness

you gave me

You put the hurt on me

You socked it to me, mama

When you said goodbye

So, please, walk on by

Make believe you never see

the tears I cry

So do me a favour

And walk on by

So I'm beggin' you to

Walk on by

Oh, yeah

And make believe you never see

the tears I cry

So I'm beggin' you

I'm beggin' you

To walk on by

Make believe you never see

the tears I cry

Oh

There's no dust in my eye

Oh, no

Smoke ain't makin' me cry

No, no, no

It's the hurt

you put on me, yeah

I don't want you

to see this man cry

Where is the love

Where is the love

Where is the love

Where is the love

Where is the love

Where is the love

Where is the love

Ooh, yeah, yeah

Where is the love

You said you'd give to me

Soon as you were free

Will it ever be

Where is the love

You told me that you

didn't love him

And you were gonna say goodbye

But if you really

didn't mean it

Why did you have to lie

Where is the love

You said was mine

all mine

Till the end of time

Was it just a lie

Where is the love

If you had had a sudden

change of heart

I wish that you

would tell me so

Don't leave me hangin'

on these promises

You've gotta let me know
