Excerpt from [[Mozipedia]]
<blockquote>
Perhaps his finest collaboration with Mark Nevin, ‘I’ve Changed My Plea To Guilty’ is, furthermore, one of the greatest tracks in Morrissey’s entire catalogue. At the time, he seemed to agree, telling one interviewer in all sincerity it was ‘the best song, in my mind, that I have recorded’.
...Modelled on his home demo, Nevin constructed the opening and closing sound collage using samples of country singer [[Mention::Skeeter Davis]]’s 1963 hit ‘The End Of The World’ alongside Dictaphone recordings of a waitress friend from Minneapolis called Suzy Solan.

I'm standing in the dock
With my innocent hand on my heart

And reason and freedom is a waste
And reason and freedom is a waste
It's a lot like life  
It's a lot like life
