Original Lyrics: I fight authority, authority always wins

Story about this misheard lyric by: Holly Who is Iori, you say? He is a character from a video game called 'King of Fighters'. For a long time, I thought this was someone singing about how every time he played 'King of Fighters', he would always lose to Iori (though it didn't quite fit the rest of the song). I did not know that this song came out before Iori or 'King of Fighters' existed until someone set me straight, and, boy, was I embarassed. |
