Nothing at all to do with TRP, but thought foax here would like this:

THE OJ TRIAL AS TOLD BY DR. SEUSS
 
        I did not kill my lovely wife.
        I did not slash her with a knife.
        I did not bonk her on the head.
        I did not know that she was dead.
 
        I stayed at home that fateful night.
        I took a cab, then took a flight.
        The bag I had was just for me.
        My bag! My bag! Hey, leave it be.
 
        When I came home I had a gash.
        My hand was cut from broken glass.
        I cut my hand on broken glass.
        A broken glass did cause that gash.
 
        I have nothing, nothing to hide.
        My friend, he took me for a ride.
 
        Did you take this person's life?
        Did you do it with a knife?
 
        I did not do it with a knife.
        I did not, could not kill my wife.
        I did not do this awful crime.
        I could not, would not anytime.
 
        Did you hit her from above?
        Did you drop this bloody glove?
 
        I did not hit her from above.
        I cannot even wear that glove.
        I did not do it with a knife.
        I did not, could not kill my wife.
        I did not do this awful crime.
        I could not, would not, anytime.
 
        And now I'm free, I can return
        To my house for which I yearn.
        And to my family whom I love.
        Hey now I'm free -- Give back my glove!!
