For the one of you that doesn't know the song (though I will admit it might not be recognizable from the title, as I thought it was 'I Fight Authority' for the longest time.)

Authority Song, John Cougar Mellencamp

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.

And I say...
I fight authority; authority always wins.
I fight authority; authority always wins.
I been doin' it since I was a young kid
And I come out grinnin'
I fight authority; authority always wins.

So I call up my preacher; I say, "Gimme strength for Round Five."
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 I say...
I fight authority; authority always wins.
I fight authority; authority always wins.
I been doin' it since I was a young kid
And I come out grinnin'
I fight authority; authority always wins.

Oh no, oh no, oh no, no no no.
I fight authority, authority always wins...
