Oingo Boingo - Right To Know Lyrics
On a cool dark night someones coming down the streetWith a smoking gun and a smile on his faceFor all to see, the rest is historyBut no one knows whats on his mindExcept him and his monkey--come on . . .When the big man fell with a secret on his lipsSo close, so closetil the bullet gave his kissThe world cried out loud, the rest is historyAnd no one knows whats on his mindExcept him and his monkey--come on . . .Youve got a right to knowYouve got a right to knowYouve got a right to knowYouve got a right to believe that theres something more to seeTheres a man at the desk who is talking real softTo a half dozen guys but not a word is lostThe men depart they all know what to doWith a rifle aiming through a clearing in a bushSo close, so close, but no one thinks to lookYouve got a right to knowYouve got a right to knowYouve got a right to knowYouve got a right to believe that theres something more to seeThan a big bunch of flowers in a cemeterySo why hold out, come on and give your testimonyOn a phone connection on the other side of townSits a man with a pencil who doesnt make a soundHe nods his head, the rest is historyBut no one knows whats on his mindExcept him and his monkey--come on, come onWhen the big man fell with a secret on his lipsSo close, so closetil the bullet gave his kissYouve got a right to knowYouve got a right to knowYouve got a right to knowYouve got a right to believe that theres something more to seeThan a big bunch of flowers in a cemeterySo why hold out, come on and give your testimonyOn a cool dark night someones coming down the street . . .
