about

A song about politics and being treated as less than human by those in power. A cover (more like a rework) of a song by The Clash.

lyrics

This is a public service announcement with guitar
know your three rights

Number 1
you have the right not to be killed
murder is a crime
unless done by higher powers

You have the right to free speech
as long as you're not dumb enough to actually try it

You have the right to food money
providing of course
you don't mind humiliation
so cross your fingers for rehabilitation

Know your rights
these are your rights
all three of 'em
it has been suggested
in some quarters that this is not enough
finally then I will read you your rights
you have the right to remain silent
you are warned that anything you say
can and will be taken down
and used as evidence against you
get off the streets
get off the streets
listen to this
run

Know your rights
(These are your rights)
