I think some of u have the right idea, others just hear the phrase "fuck authority" and run from ther... I don't feel this song is about anarchy, it's about standing up for what u believe in/rebelling against what's not right- especially when authority is in the wrong. it's about not just accepting what u r told, and to think for yourself- "we gotta take offence against the status quo"... I'm sorry to bust the bubble of all u anarchists... but watch the music video to this song... it only shows authority when it's wrong (hitler, police brutality, etc.) and guess what the world isn't perfect, and neither is any government, but ours is about as close as it gets, and anarchy just doesn't work- try actually THINKING about it... GREAT punk song

this song is about how you shouldnt listen to the authority of someone (government) that you wouldnt even trust, or someone who hides stuff...now would you give them respect of thier authority?

Fuck all authority figures of any type. Now instead of hearing the song and letting it pass by you I think we should all rise against and do somin about authority..... and they can feel the rage of OUR generation!!!!!!!!!!!!!
