Authority Song Lyrics

they'd like to get you in a compromising situation
well they like to get there smile in your face
well they think your so cute when they got you in that conditioin
well i think its a total disgrace
and i say
i fight authority and authority always wins
i fight authority and authority always wins!
i've been doing it since i was young kid and came out pregnant?
i fight authority and authority always wins
so i go to my preacher and say give me the stregnth around five
he said you don't need no stregnth you need to grow up son
well i said growing up is just growing old and then you're dying
and dieing to me don't sound like all that much fun
and i say
i fight authority and authority always wins
i fight authority and authority always wins!
i've been doing it since i was young kid and came out pregnant?
i fight authority and authority always wins
said oh nooo oh no no no
i said oh no oh no no no
i fight authority and authority always wins!
i fight authority and authority always wins!
...
fuck fuck fuck authority

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
