Entitlement

Written by：Jack White

Every time I'm doing what I want to

Somebody comes and tells me it's wrong

Whenever I'm doing just as I please

Somebody cuts me down to my knees

Yeah somebody cuts me down to my knees

In a time when everybody feels entitled

Why can't I feel entitled too

Somebody took away my god given right

I guess god must have gave it to you

Yeah I guess god must have slipped it to you

Stop what you're doing and get back in line

I hear this from people all the time

If we can't be happy then you can't be too

I'm tired of being told what to do

Yeah I'm sick of being told what to do

There are children today who were lied to

Told the world is rightfully theirs

They can have what they want whenever they want

They take like caesar and nobody cares

Live like caesar and nobody cares

I can't bring myself to take without penance

Or atonements or sweat from my brow

Though the world may be spoiled and getting worse every day

Don't they feel like they're cheated somehow

I feel like I've been cheated somehow

Stop what you're doing and get back in line

I hear this from people all the time

If we can't be happy then you can't be too

I'm tired of being told what to do

Yeah I'm sick of being told what to do

I guess nobody on earth is entitled

Not mothers not children not kings

Not a one single person on god's golden shore

Is entitled to one single thing

We don't deserve a single damn thing
