Know Your Rights

“Know Your Rights” was released as a single prior to the release of the album, Combat Rock, on which it appears. The song was the first single from the album. The song begins with the words “This is a public service announcement…with guitars!” The structure of the song revolves around the rights held by the poor and disenfranchised, in which the speaker of the song, presumably a villainous civil servant (whose identity is assumed in the song by vocalist Joe Strummer), names the three actual rights.
