Can we change the text of a permission in android

Can we change the text of a permission in android

I know this sounds silly and also not a technical question, but, I think,
its important to know and SO is the best place. I have searched abit
before posting here.
Can we change the text of the permission?
Let's say I am using a permission, "GET_ACCOUNTS". This will display,
"Your Accounts" and "Discover known accounts", to the user when he
installs the application. Let's say I want to inform the user, that this
permission is only being used for "push notifications" and hence i want to
change this to, "Used for Push Notifications" instead of "Discover known
accounts". Can i do this?
I know if this is permitted, developer can write what ever they want, but,
in a good sense, this will clear up the doubts that most users have while
installing the application.
Thanks for your help..
