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

i don't get this song at all. We aren't entitled to isn't the same as we don't deserve, to take the last lines, and many other contradictions. To be entitled to - for all words' meanings come from common parlance, not strict dictionary definition - is to have a right to which nobody and nothing should stand in the way; to deserve is to be worthy of, not necessarily to get. Nobody deserves to die, for instance, but we all do; everybody is entitled to live forever doesn't have the same meaning at all as everybody deserves to live. I get that he's playing on the differences and similarities between words; between feelings; that someone else's entitlement to something blocks your entitlement to it, because they got it... but he wastes so much time on word play, that he fails to make a single coherent point. Saying that everyone who stops you doing anything must be jealous and bitter is a stretch only the most committed freudian could make, but at least is a coherent point, the one i think he's after. Oh well

Heh, too relevant today. This song should be the libertarian anthem.
