Human Rights

Mighty Sparrow

[Verse 1]
Human Rights, the latest platform
On which politicians lunge from
When they want to control your will
"Human Rights" they shoutin' from the highest hill

[Chorus]
"For Human Rights I will fight!
With all my might!
Day and night!"

[Verse 2]
Once you have a little schoolin'
You bound to see it's you they foolin'
Some of them so damn crooked
They think the public stupid
False promises and false [?] they give for quotes

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Nobody ain't want no welfare
We want jobs and we want healthcare
Education, give we that quick
We are one with politic and rhetoric

[Chorus]
"For Human Rights I will fight!
With all my might!
Day and night!"

[Verse 4]
We have sense and we know better
Can't catch wе with propaganda
[?] recession
Is crippling the nation
About thе slangs and slogan
We want action

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
In this world social injustice
Seem to be the normal practice
Some reform become evident
When it's politically expedient

[Chorus]
"For Human Rights I will fight!
With all my might!
Day and night!"

[Verse 6]
Half the world know pangs of hunger
We growing weak instead of stronger
Some men [?]
To seek the people's interest
But when they goin' lose they office
They goin' to wonder, "What's this?"

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 7]
Double standards, case-in-point is
Embraces the highest places
Who deny you freedom of choice
Are the ones who shouting with the loudest voice

[Chorus]
"For Human Rights I will fight!
With all my might!
Day and night!"

[Verse 8]
Listen well and don't be confused
Human Rights is really abuse
Boycott for Afghanistan
Ignore Black South African
Support for Jews, not Gentiles
It's really wild!
