🎵 they ask that you give every american
equal human rights
'fore you ask our leaders to give their people human rights
i’ll represent america as a human rights ambassador
but before i take such a post
you have to clean your own backyard first 🎵 ~ Human Rights, Radio Free Grenada
🎵 they got plenty human rights in america
but some people got too much, while others suffer
the rich; the white; the bureaucracy
do anything they want, 'cause you set them free
but you frame the poor; the black; the minority
then made them suffer to get their liberty! 🎵
• Son of Sam — Name used by David Berkowitz, a convicted serial killer. His sentence was seen by many as too lenient due to the eligibility for parole after 25 years.
“too much” human rights = privilege. that’s what the lyrics are referring to

I don’t know why they mentioned how the Son of Sam had too human rights, other than that, nice song…
