Lyrics
They like to get you in a compromising position
Hey, 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, so I say
I fight authority, authority always wins
I say, I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I've been doing it since I was a young kid I come out grinnin'
I say, I fight authority, authority always wins
So I call my preacher I said, give me the strength for round 5
He said, you don't need no strength, you need to grow up son
I said, growin' up leads to growin' old and then to dyin'
Ooh, dyin' to me don't sound like all that much fun, so I say
I fight authority, authority always wins
I say, I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I've been doing it since I was a young kid I come out grinnin'
I say, I fight authority, authority, always wins
I say oh no, no no, I said oh no, no no, I said oh no, no no
I fight authority, authority always wins
Said I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I've been doing it since I was a young kid I come out grinnin'
I said, I fight authority, authority, always wins
So I say, I fight authority, authority always wins
I said, I fight authority, authority always wins
Well I've been doing it since I was a young kid
I come out grinnin'
I said, I fight authority, authority always wins
