Framed

I was sitting in the coffee shop

Just minding my own affair

When all of a sudden, this

Policeman caught me unaware

Said, is your name Pedro

I says, yeah, I guess so

Said, then come with me cause

You're the man we been looking for

I said, hey, man

I been framed

Hey, no, really, man

I was framed

Aw, I never do nothing wrong, man

But every time I get the blame

I been framed

They put me in the lineup

And let the bright lights shine

There was ten poor dudes like me

Standing in that line

I knew I was the victim

Of somebody's evil plan

When this scroungy looking dude

Came up and said, yeah

That's him, man

Hey, wait a minute, man

I been framed, man

Aw, listen to me, judge

I was framed

I never do nothing wrong

But every time I get the blame

Hey, I been framed

Then the prosecuting attorney

Started prosecuting on me

That dude gave me the first

Second, and third degree

He said where were you

On the night of July 29

I said, man, I was home in bed

He said, judge, that man's lying

I said wait a minute, man

I was framed, man

Hey, judge, listen to me, man

Really, you gotta believe me

I been framed, man

I never do nothing wrong

But every time I get the blame

Oh, I was framed

Now look, I deny the charges

Of having any weed

And I also deny the charges

Of taking any speed

I deny the charges

Of selling any grass

But when the judge

Looked down and said guilty

I said, judge, you can kiss my

Framed

Judge, I'm telling you the truth

I was framed, man

I never do nothing wrong

But every time I get the blame

Hey, I was framed

Oh, framed

You gotta believe me, judge

That wasn't even my stuff

I was holding it for a friend, man

Could this face life, man

Oh, come on, judge

Don't send me to camp, man

Look, I just got a new

Tattoo and everything, man

Oh, man, what a bummer, man

Oh, come on, judge

Gimme a break, please

Aw, judge, come on, man

Don't take me away, I was framed
