Lyrics for Song: The Trial
Lyrics for Album: The Wall [1979]
Good morning, Worm, your honor
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
This will not do,
Call the schoolmaster!
I always said he'd come to no good in the end your honor
If they'd let me have my way I could have flayed him into shape
But my hands were tied the bleeding hearts and artist
Let him get away with murder, let me hammer him today?
Crazy, toys in the attic, I am crazy
Truly gone fishing
They must have taken my marbles away
Crazy, toys in the attic, he is crazy
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 your own way
Have you broken any homes up lately?
Just five minutes, Worm, your honor
Him, me, alone
Baaaaaaaaaaabe!
Come to mother baby, let me hold you in my arms
M'lud I never wanted him to get in any trouble
Why'd he ever have to leave me?
Worm, your honor, 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
Incontrivertable
There's no need for the jury to retire
In all my years of judging, I have never heard before
Of someone more deserving of the full penalty of law
The way you made them suffer, your exquisite wife and mother
Fills me with the urge to defecate!
Hey Judge! Shit on him!
Since, my friend, you have revealed your deepest fear
I sentence you to be exposed before your peers
Tear down The Wall
Tear down The Wall
Tear down The Wall

The Trial
Released on Pink Floyd's 1980 concept album The Wall, 'The Trial' serves as the dramatic centerpiece of the rock opera's narrative arc. The track features a distinctive, repetitive guitar riff that builds tension before exploding into a chaotic, free-form jam session. This recording captures the band's experimental side, blending psychedelic rock with theatrical elements to depict the protagonist's psychological breakdown. As a key component of the album's soundtrack, the song reinforces the themes of institutional oppression and mental instability. Its aggressive energy and improvisational structure remain a defining characteristic of Pink Floyd's later work, influencing countless artists who sought to merge structured songwriting with extended instrumental exploration. |
