Greetings:
Fine or time?
Most singers have the main character ask the judge: What's gonna be my fine? That doesn't make much sense when discussing an offense serious enough to merit a 21 year sentence. So I always have the protagonist ask: What's gonna be my time?
Doesn't that make better sense? I'm sure I'm not the only one who sings it that way.
