Might Is Right Lyrics


Might was right when Caesar bled upon the stones of Rome

Might was right when Joshua led his hordes over Jordan’s foam

And might was right when German troops poured down through Paris gay

It’s the gospel of the ancient world and the logic of today

Behind all kings and presidents all government and law

Are army corps and cannoneers to hold the world in awe

And sword-strong races own the earth and ride the conqueror’s car

And liberty has never been won except by deeds of war

Rise, rise and conquer

For your choice is; victory or death

You must know; man is a beast,

Life is war and might is right

Where pendant suns in millions swing around this whirling earth

It’s might, it’s force that holds the brakes and steers through life and death

Force governs all organic life, inspires all right and wrong

It’s natures plan to weed-out man and test who are the strong
