kirin j callinan – rise lyrics
[intro]
an error of judgement, a sydney court’s been told
that’s what prompted a sydney musician to flash himself on the arias red carpet
well, kirin callinan has a reputation for being provocative
he claims the stunt wasn’t meant to shock, but it did
and now he’s been ordered to rein in his bad behavior
there’s no arguing that kirin callinan is a showman
kirin, how are you feeling?
the musician usually likes to wear less clothing than he had on today
and it was his dare to bare att-tude that got him into trouble on the red carpet at the arias in november
it was an error of judgement, he did it in a jovial mood
he didn’t do it to offend anybody, his lawyer said
i could be wrong or i could be right
but it was offensive, and he was charged with willful and obscene exposure
i could be wrong or i could be right
[verse 1]
i could be wrong, i could be right
i could be black, i could be white
i could be right, i could be wrong
i could be white, i could be black
the time has come, your second skin
the cost so high, the gain so low
all through the valley
the written word is a lie
[chorus]
may the road rise with you
may the road rise with you
may the road rise with you
may the road rise with you
[interlude]
“apparently you are someone well known, but not to me,” the magistrate said.
“you are not special. any suggestion you are, the court will reject.”
[verse 2]
i could be wrong or i could be right
i could be wrong or i could be right
i could be wrong, i could be right
i could be black, i could be white
i could be right, i could be wrong
i could be black, i could be white
they put a hot wire to my head
’cause of the things i didn’t said
made these feelings go away
model citizen in every way
[chorus]
may the road rise with you
may the road rise with you
may the road rise with you
may the road rise with you
[interlude]
it’s still unclear why callinan did it
his own manager warned him to behave himself that night
the court heard he was egged on by the paparazzi to flash himself as he walked along the red carpet
lucky for callinan, the charges were dismissed
but he was told to behave himself for the next 12 months
[verse 3]
i could be wrong or i could be right
i could be wrong or i could be wrong
i could be wrong, i could be right
i could be black, i could be white
i could be right, i could be wrong
i could be white, i could be black
your time has come, your second skin
the cost so high, the gain so low
all through the valley
the written word is a lie
