(Back to verse riff for 3rd verse)

Verse 3:
Number 3: You have the right to free speech
As long as you're not dumb enough to actually try it
Know your rights
These are your rights!
Know your rights
These are your rights
For freedom
Ha!

It has been suggested in some quarters that this is not enough
So get up, get up and scream!

(At this point the band goes into double time, playing the chords on every beat, 
instead of only on the upbeats.)

Get up and scream!
