John Mellencamp authority song

Select language to translate this lyric

Oh, they like to get you in a compromising position
They like to get you there and smile in your face
Well, they think they're so cute when they got you in that condition
Well I think it's a total disgrace, and I said
I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I've been doing it since I was a young kid, I come out grinnin'
Well, I fight authority, authority always wins
So I call up my preacher
I say, Give me strength for Round 5
He said , You dont 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 dont sound like all that much fun
So I said
I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I've been doing it since I was a young kid, I come out grinnin'
Well, I fight authority, authority always wins
I said ‽Oh no no no”, I said ‽Oh no no no”
I said ‽Oh no no no”
I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I've been doing it since I was a young kid, I come out grinnin'
Well, I fight authority, authority always wins
Well, I fight authority, authority always wins
