Stephen Sondheim
Everybody’s Got the Right (Reprise)
[BOOTH]
Everybody's got the right
To be happy
Don't be mad
Life's not as bad as it seems

[CZOLGOSZ]
If you keep your goal in sight
You can climb to any height

[BOOTH & CZOLGOSZ]
Everybody's got the right
To their dreams

[MOORE]
Everybody's got the right
To be different—

[BOOTH & CZOLGOSZ]
If you want to be different...

[GUITEAU]
Even though
At times they go
To extremes...
[BOOTH, CZOLGOSZ & MOORE]
Go to extremes...

[ZANGARA]
Anybody can prevail

[BYCK]
Everybody's free to fail

[BOOTH]
No one can be put in jail
For their dreams

[ALL]
Free country—!

[HINCKLEY]
Means that you've got the choice

[GUITEAU]
Be a scholar!

[BYCK]
Make a dollar!

[ALL]
Free country—!
[CZOLGOSZ]
Means that you get a voice!

[ZANGARA]
Scream and holler!

[FROMME]
Grab 'em by the collar!

[ALL]
Free country—!

[OSWALD]
Means you get to connect!

[MOORE & FROMME]
That's it!

[ALL]
Means the right to expect
That you'll have an effect
That you're gonna connect!
Connect! Connect! Connect!

Everybody's got the right
To some sunshine
Not the sun
But maybe one
Of its beams...
(One of its beams...)
Rich man, poor man, black or white
Everybody gets a bite
Everybody just hold tight
To your dreams
Everybody's got the right—
To their dreams...
[They fire their guns into the air—BLAM!]
