This is a public service announcement, with guitar:

Know your rights, all three of them.

1). You have the right not to be killed. Murder is a crime–unless it was done by a policeman or an aristocrat.

Know your rights.

2). You have the right to food money, providing of course you don’t mind a little investigation, humiliation, and–if you cross your fingers–rehabilitation.

Know your rights; these are your rights. Know these rights.

3). You have the right to free speech as long as you’re not dumb enough to actually try it.

Know your rights; these are your rights–all three of them.

It has been suggested in some quarters that this is not enough. Well, get off the streets.

The Clash, 1982.
