Jack White - Entitlement Lyrics
Every time I'm doing what I want toSomebody comes and tells me it's wrongWhenever I'm doing just as I pleaseSomebody cuts me down to my kneesYeah, somebody cuts me down to my kneesIn a time when everybody feels entitledWhy can't I feel entitled too?Somebody took away my god given rightI guess God must have gave it to youYeah, I guess God must have slipped it to youStop what you're doing and get back in lineI hear this from people all the timeIf we can't be happy then you can't be tooI'm tired of being told what to doYeah, I'm sick of being told what to doThere are children today who were lied toTold the world is rightfully theirsThey can have what they want, whenever they wantThey take like Caesar and nobody caresLive like Caesar and nobody caresI can't bring myself to take without penanceOr atonements or sweat from my browThough the world may be spoiled and getting worse every dayDon't they feel like they're cheated somehowI feel like I've been cheated somehowStop what you're doing and get back in lineI hear this from people all the timeIf we can't be happy then you can't be tooI'm tired of being told what to doYeah, I'm sick of being told what to doI guess nobody on earth is entitledNot mothers, not children, not kingsNot a one single person on God's golden shoreIs entitled to one single thingWe don't deserve a single damn thing
