This poem rebukes the notion to cater to rebels who clamor for their own way. It establishes the fact that rebels don't need more sugar-coating, but need an authority to put in place true principles of true liberty. It closes: "If you give to rebels their own way, Then they're the ones that are in charge, They'll continue to rebel each day, Their sinfulness will grow ever large."
