John Mellencamp - Authority Song lyrics

They like to get you in a compromising position<br>They like to get you there and smille in your face<br>They think, they're so cute when they got you in that condition<br>Well I think, it's a total disgrace<br><br>Chorus:<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I been doing it, since I was a young kid<br>I've come out grinnin'<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br><br>So I call up my preacher<br>I say: gimme strenght for round 5<br>He said: you don't need no strength, you need to grow up, son<br>I said: growing up leads to growing old and then to dying,<br>And dying to me don't sound like all that much fun<br><br>Chorus:<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I been doing it, since I was a young kid<br>I've come out grinnin'<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br><br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I been doing it, since I was a young kid<br>I've come out grinnin'<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>Oh no<br>Oh no<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br><br>Chorus:<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I been doing it, since I was a young kid<br>I've come out grinnin'<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I fight authority, authority always wins<br>I been doing it, since I was a young kid<br>I've come out grinnin'<br>I fight authority, authority always wins
