Stop
stop!
-I wanna go home
-take off this uniform
-and leave the show
-but I'm waiting in this cell
-because I have to know
-have I been guilty all this time?


The Trial
good morning Worm your honour
the crown will plainly show
the prisoner who now stands before you
was caught red-handed showing feelings
showing feelings of an almost human nature
(shame on Him)
this will not do

call the school-master!

i always said He'd come to no good
in the end your honour
if they'd let me have my way
i could have flayed Him into shape
but my hands were tied
the bleeding hearts and artists
let Him get away with murder
let me hammer Him today

-crazy, toys in the attic, I am crazy
-they must have taken My marbles away
crazy, toys in the attic
He is crazy

call the defendant's wife!

you little shit, You're in it now
i hope they throw away the key
You should have talked to me more often than You did
but no, You had to go You're own way
have You broken any homes up lately
just five minutes Worm your honour
Him and me alone

babe!

come to mother baby
let me hold You in my arms
milord i never wanted Him to
get in any trouble
why'd He ever have to leave me?
Worm your honour, let me take Him home

-crazy, over the rainbow, I am crazy
-bars in the window
-there must have been a door there in the Wall
-when I came in
crazy, over the rainbow
He is crazy

the evidence before the court is
incontrovertible
there's no need for the jury to retire
in all my years of judging
i have never heard before
of someone more deserving
the full penalty of law
the way You made them suffer
You're exquisite wife and mother
fills me with an urge to defecate
since, my friend, You have revealed Your deepest fear
i sentence You to be exposed before Your peers
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!


Taylor comes to see Cortnée Floyd in his prison cell, tears in his eyes. The first question he asks is why Cortnée didn't run. Cortnée basically breaks down and tells Tay that he has to know whether his whole life has been a guilt-ridden lie, and if it has then he's happy to die. He only half-jokingly says that he'd gladly end his life if it meant he didn't have to battle Pink anymore. Taylor makes to leave after a hug, but Cortnée asks him one last question, did Tay ever really love him? Tay shakes his head, telling himself that the least Cortnée deserves is honesty; 'I do love you Cortnée, but not like that. Not like you want me to'. Cortnée just nods and returns to his contemplations.
At his trial, Cortnée is completely insane, Taylor's admission having finally driven him over the edge. The Worm finds him guilty and orders the tearing down of the Wall.

Cortnée = 26; Isaac = 21; Taylor = 18; Zac = 16
