Authority

Now you listen and make sure it's understood With your obnoxious ways, you're no good This must end when I say it I'll hunt you down with bureaucracy You'll see that it's me that you'll listen to ultimately This is my word, obey it I will punish and I will kill I will choke those who provoke The fear I instilled You must remain tethered So whatever you have up your sleeves Whatever naive belief you're trying to achieve Your free will must be severed I'll make the rules, you follow Don't you ever forget Your freedom is borrowed So watch it Watch it Doesn't matter who you wanna be Respect authority Don't say that thing and don't you play no games with me Respect authority There's no battle to be won My way is how it's done This is the way that it was meant to be Respect it Authority I'll wipe that grin from off your face No disgrace will ever take my place You will meet my violence Quiet you shall remain And refrain from ever trying to complain Locked away in silence I'll make the rules, you follow Don't you ever forget That your freedom is borrowed So watch it Watch it Doesn't matter who you wanna be Respect authority Don't say that thing and don't you play no games with me Respect authority There's no battle to be won My way is how it's done This is the way that it was meant to be Respect it Authority Soon you will see I'll beat you down if you try to be free On your knees Bow down, sit tight Surrender yourself to me Doesn't matter who you wanna be Respect authority Don't say that thing and don't you play no games with me Respect authority It's easy enough, It's plain to see Respect authority The only one you should listen to is me Respect it Authority
