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
