Lyrics
RIGHT IS RIGHT
Words and music, by Winston Apple
Extra! Extra! Read all about it, junk food killer strikes!
He confess, say "Yes, I shot the mayor and the fairy"
They let him off with a Pepsi Lite
Right is right, wrong is wrong
If it ain't right now, it will be before long
The children are starving, crying, but you can't hear a sound
You can't take the time, won't take the time to take a look around
We'll see if you can take it when the heat is coming down
You're gonna feel like a fool, you're gonna look like a clown
When you find out
Right is right..
Your schools are like prisons
You build your churches out of straw
Any honest men among you are forced to live outside the law
If you won't take the law into your own hands,
I'm gonna beat you to the draw
`Cos I'm getting tired of people telling me I didn't see
What I know I saw, I'm telling you
Right is right..
