Hearsay Exceptions (10 main ones)

Tried to do this with the karaoke background track but am having major computer problems... anyway, here are the lyrics (ie the exceptions...):

*lyrics written by Amanda Bakale (xoxoxo!)
**and of course, to the tune of Miley Cyrus's "Party in the USA"

I said out of court some crazy words
Now it's called a hearsay statement
Entered for the truth that it asserts
Whoa, Is it gonna get in?

But here's a song
Clearing up your confusion
The FRE lists a ton of exclusions
They might call it hearsay
Jury's gonna hear it all day

I'm unavailable with former testimony
Party admissions made against me
I made a statement to my physician
And a business records on
And a business records on
And a business records on

Present sense impression
A declaration
Made when you're about to die
Statements against interest
Excited Utterance
Statement of conditions
That existed then
Forfeiture by wrongdoing
Yeah, it's an exception to hearsay
Yeah, it's an exception to hearsay
