Lyrics

ALL WRONG

They've got it all wrong
The man with the dreadlocks shakes his head and cries
They've got it all wrong
They're twisting the message, telling the people lies
They've got it all wrong
They're using the music to sell just anything
They've got it all wrong
The man with the dreadlocks shakes his head and cries

They're cashing in, checking out
It's all about dollars, there's no doubt
Take your hands out of my pocket man!
They push it in, they pull it out
Waiting for the prize that won't come out
Nothing's gonna stop them, they just continue to play

They've got it all wrong (All wrong!)
Thousands of people being led astray
They've got it all wrong (It can't be right so it must be wrong!)
There's more to the music, it's time to watch and pray

Dem cashing in, dem selling out
It's all about money there's no doubt
Stop playing Scrabble with my conscience
The verdicts out - reasonable doubt
The gloves don't fit so they acquit
The jury has done its duty so why do you complain?

They've got it all wrong (It can't be right so it must be wrong)
The man in the white bronco is passing by
They've got it all wrong (All wrong!)
He's confusing the people, he's got no alibi

They've got it all wrong (All wrong!)
The guys with the cameras waiting for their prey
It's got to be wrong (It can't be right so it must be wrong)
They're using the media telling the people lies
They've got it all wrong (All wrong!)
They're selling their videos and now they're criticized
It's got to be wrong (It can't be right so it must be wrong)
The guys with the cameras smile and snap away

Invading homes and bugging phones
They're turning trash into cash
Everybody wants that fifteen minutes of fame
High powered lens, a speeding Benz
Princess dies, the public cries:
"Those paparazzi are the ones to blame!"

They've got it all wrong (It can't be right so it must be wrong!)
The girl in the sweat suit shakes her head and sighs
It's got to be wrong (All wrong!)
The man with the flowers waves his hand cries:
"Why? ... Why? ... Why?"
Confusing the people to sell their magazines
Why? ... Why? ... Why?
