Michael Jackson - Privacy Lyrics

Aint the pictures enough, why do you go through so much
To get the story you need, so you can bury me
You've got the people confused, you tell the stories you choose
You try to get me to lose the man I really am

You keep on stalking me, invading my privacy
won�t you just let me be
�cause you cameras can�t control, the minds of those who know
That you�ll even sell your soul just to get a story sold

[CHORUS]
I need my privacy, I need my privacy
So paparazzi, get away from me

Some of you still wonder why, one of my friends had to die
To get a message across, that yet you haven�t heard
My friend was chased and confused, like many others I knew
But on that cold winter night, my pride was snatched away

Now she get no second chance, she just ridiculed and harassed
Please tell my why
No there�s a lesson to learn, respect�s not given, it�s earned
Stop maliciously attacking my integrity

[CHORUS]

Now there�s a lesson to learn, stories are twisted and turned
Stop maliciously attacking my integrity

[CHORUS x 3]

Inside the courtroom Wednesday, Judge Melville laid out the charges against Michael Jackson for the jurors. Then, he ordered them back to court at 8:30 a.m. PT Thursday morning PT for closing arguments from both sides.

The jury will take the case into the deliberation room and decide if Michael Joe Jackson is guilty of conspiring to extort, abduct, and imprison the much-talked about family.

The ten 10 charges are outlined below:

Count 1: Conspiracy. The charge is Michael Jackson "conspired with Ronald Konitzer, Dieter Weizner, Frank Casio, Vinnie Amen and Marc Schaffel to abduct, falsely imprison and extort the accuser and his family by unlawfully controlling, withholding, isolating, concealing and enticing and threatened them."

Sentence: Up to four years for the conspiracy to abduct a child, up to one year for the false imprisonment, and up to four years for the extortion.

Counts 2 to 5: Molestation. The charge is that between February 20, 2003 and March 12, 2003, "Jackson willfully, unlawfully and lewdly committed a lewd and lascivious act upon the accuser with the intent of arousing, appealing to, and ratifying the lust, passions, and sexual desires of himself and the accuser."

This refers to two counts of the boy himself saying "Michael Jackson molested me, and two counts of his brother saying, "I saw Michael Jackson molesting him."

Sentence: For each count, Michael Jackson could face up to eight years in prison.

Count 6: Attempt to commit a lewd act. "Between February 2003 and March 12 that Jackson attempted to have the accuser commit a lewd act upon Jackson's body with the intent of arousing."

"Basically there was one area of testimony where the accuser said Michael Jackson grabbed his hand and put it on Michael Jackson's genitals and then the boy grabbed it away," explains "Inside Edition" senior correspondent Jim Moret. "This jury may have been stunned to discover that it's not actually molestation-- It's a lewd act. And all you really need is 'a touching of the body of someone younger than 14 with the intent to arouse either person.' This touching could be on top of or below the clothing."

Counts 7 to 10: The felony alcohol counts-- Giving alcohol to the child to assist in the commission of the lewd act. Each of these counts relates to giving the boy alcohol in an effort to molest him on those four molestation counts. The charge is that he unlawfully gave the accuser alcohol to enable and assist him to commit child molestation.

Can you convict somebody of just these alcohol offenses, and if you acquit him by a reasonable doubt on the underlying lewd acts? "The answer is yes," says Criminal defense attorney Daniel Horowitz. "This was actually a crime that was invented in the 1890's, put on the books in California to punish people who slipped laudanum or opiates to people, knocking them out, so that then the warehouse they were guarding could be robbed. But it applies to any felony, any drug including alcohol meant to knock the person out or weaken them so that then you can commit the crime. That is a crime in and of itself."

After recent developments in court this week, they jury may decide Jackson is still guilty of the lesser misdemeanor charge of providing alcohol to a minor.

Sentence: If Jackson is convicted on a felony alcohol count, this carries about two years time, while a conviction on a lesser misdemeanor charge would result in fines and probation.
