Just 'Cos You Got The Power (Live In Munich 2015) [Explicit] Songtext
von Motörhead

You might be a financial wizard
With a sack of loots
But all I see is a slimy lizard
With an expensive suits

Go on and run your corporation
Go on and kiss some ass
You can buy half of the nation
But you can′t buy class

You bastards think, it's funny
Lyin′ and thieving all your life
Think all there is his money
Got your future strapped-up tight

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

You can take my fingers, babe
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 seal my mail
Step on my blue suede shoes

You bastards might be clever
Got it mapped out in black and white
But you remember you can never
Teach a dog to stand up right

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, no no, no no

Go on out make another deal
Feed your big fat face
Go on out and cop a feel
Get on somebody′s case

You surely would 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 all dollars
Run 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 got your ass
And you are ready, buddy
