We all got to die
But some people
Some people
Some people got to suffer before they die

one man lived just like a king,
the other man begged on the street.
long ago, far away;
these things don't happen
no more, nowadays

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget

You, preacher man don't tell me
Heaven is under the earth
Get up, stand up
Stand up for your rights
