John Mellencamp - Authority Song lyrics

they like to get you in a compromising position They like to get you there and smille in your face They think, they're so cute when they got you in that condition Well i think, it's a total disgrace Chorus: I fight authority, authority always wins I fight authority, authority always wins I been doing it, since i was a young kid I've come out grinnin' I fight authority, authority always wins So i call up my preacher I say: "gimme strenght 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" Chorus: I fight authority, authority always wins I fight authority, authority always wins I been doing it, since i was a young kid I've come out grinnin' I fight authority, authority always wins I fight authority, authority always wins I fight authority, authority always wins I been doing it, since i was a young kid I've come out grinnin' I fight authority, authority always wins Oh no Oh no I fight authority, authority always wins Chorus: I fight authority, authority always wins I fight authority, authority always wins I been doing it, since i was a young kid I've come out grinnin' I fight authority, authority always wins I fight authority, authority always wins I fight authority, authority always wins I been doing it, since i was a young kid I've come out grinnin' I fight authority, authority always wins
