Just 'Cos You Got the Power (12" B-Side)

You might be a financial wizard with a sack of loot

But all I see is a slimy lizard with an expensive suit

Go on and run your corporation, go on and kiss some ass

You can buy up 'half of the nation' but you can't buy class

You bastards think it's funny, lying and thieving all your life

Think all there is is money, got your future wrapped up tight

But just 'cos you got the power, that don't mean you got the right

You can take my fingers buddy, you can take my eyes

You can take my past and future, it won't make you wise

You can have me thrown in jail, you can steal my booze

You can even steal my mail, step on my blue suede shoes

You bastards might be clever, got it mapped out in black and white

But remember you can never teach a dog to stand upright

And just 'cos you got the power that don't mean you got the right

And just 'cos you got the power that don't mean you got the right

Go on out and make another deal, feed your big fat face

Go on out and cop a feel, get on somebody's case

You surely could be satisfied if you could get it all

But time ain't on your side, you're going to the wall

You think that life's just dollars, won with greed and lust and spite

But I wasn't born to follow, like to get my sleep at night

...I surely do

Just 'cos you got the power that don't mean you got the right

Just 'cos you got the power that don't mean you got the right

Just 'cos you got the power

That don't mean you got the right

You bet your ass, not you or anybody
