The Lyrics
They're filled with hate, 'cause the Right wants power
They're in a rush, but they're stumbling down
They're filled with hate, 'cause the Right wants power
The right wing's slowly losing ground
Those in the right wing world would scold you
They hate everyone, we've told you
'Cause the Right wants power
They really hate that Ken Starr struck out
And when they lost, they did really whine
They really hate how Ken Starr struck out
They thought impeachment would go just fine
Those in the right wing world would scold you
They hate everyone, we've told you
'Cause the Right wants power
(instrumental break)
They're filled with hate, 'cause the Right wants power
They're in a rush, but they're stumbling down
They're filled with hate, 'cause the Right wants power
The right wing's slowly losing ground
Those in the right wing world would scold you
They hate everyone, we've told you
'Cause the Right wants power
'Cause the Right wants power...
(repeat last line and fade)
They're in a rush, but they're stumbling down
They're filled with hate, 'cause the Right wants power
The right wing's slowly losing ground
Those in the right wing world would scold you
They hate everyone, we've told you
'Cause the Right wants power
They really hate that Ken Starr struck out
And when they lost, they did really whine
They really hate how Ken Starr struck out
They thought impeachment would go just fine
Those in the right wing world would scold you
They hate everyone, we've told you
'Cause the Right wants power
(instrumental break)
They're filled with hate, 'cause the Right wants power
They're in a rush, but they're stumbling down
They're filled with hate, 'cause the Right wants power
The right wing's slowly losing ground
Those in the right wing world would scold you
They hate everyone, we've told you
'Cause the Right wants power
'Cause the Right wants power...
(repeat last line and fade)
