Authority Song lyrics
They like to get you in a compromising position
And they like to get you there and smile in your face
They think they're so cute when they got you in that condition
Well I think it's a total disgrace and I say
I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I been doing it since I was a young kid I come out grinnin'
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
I call up my preacher, I say, "Give me strength for Round 5"
He said, "You don't need no strength, you need to grow up son"
I said, "Growing up leads to growing old and then to dying
And dying to me don't sound like all that much fun" and so I say
I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I been doing it since I was a young kid I come out grinnin'
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Say oh no, oh no, say oh no, oh no, say oh no, oh no
I fight authority, authority always wins
I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I been doing it since I was a young kid and I come out grinnin'
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I been doing it since I was a young kid and I come out grinnin'
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I been doing it since I was a young kid and I come out grinnin'
Well I fight authority, authority always wins
They like to get you in a compromising position
And they like to get you there and smile in your face
They think they're so cute when they got you in that condition
