Froggy Nay-Nay

The page was turned, and the deed was done

There was no turning back

Whoever it was, it wasn't me, 'cause I was taking up the slack

More than that I cannot say

I wasn't there at all

There weren't no witnesses, no one that can recall

You'll have a tough time, pinning me down

I'll deny it to the end

You will look just like a stupid clown

But I won't be jailed, my friend

You won't find any evidence, I am squeaky clean

I have an solid alibi, if you see what I mean

So go ahead, and make your case, I'm not afraid I'll lose

Judge me now, or hold your piece, do what you got to do

Love it but can I make a few suggestions , some tiny tweaks? Feel free to ignore. line 6 could say .There were no witnesses, that i can recall. lines 10 - 11 could say , But I won’t be jailed, oh no You won’t find a scrap evidence, I am squeaky clean Final line could just say, Judge me now, or hold your piece. much love lou xx

Dear Gee

Sorry to be late the last few days have been insane ... I love Lou's suggestions and think the poem with a tweak is another winner ;) love and big hugs JayCee x x x (Quote~~"It is by universal misunderstanding that all agree.
