The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy is an American rap group that was active during the 90's. His lyrics are characterized by the messages of a strong political and social criticism. In '91 they released their debut album "Hypocrisy Is the Greatest Luxury" in which it was received critical acclaim and which today provides this translation of the song "Television, The Drug of the Nation" where they make a critique of television that only leaves you every day more foolish and allow you to use your intelligence.
Lyrics:
One nation, Under
God has become a nation under the influence of a drug
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
TV connections Satellite
For our U.S.
unconsciousness apathetic therapeutic and extremely addictive
methadone metronome pumping out 150 channels 24 hours a day
You can take a look at all and yet there is nothing worth watching TV is the reason
why less than 10% of our nation reads books diarimente
Because most people think Central America means Kansas?
Socialism is not American
and apartheid is a new remedy for headache
Deep in their world is so difficult to find, it shapes our minds
Most probably the mother of our nation should remind us that we are sitting very
near the television
The drug of the nation, breeding ignorance and feeding radiation TV
, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
TV provides a firm basis for political candidates Where bears
forests are pursued by the Greek formula
imperial eagles TV is remote control machining of the mass political
secure environmental Gas Sponsored by Atento
the PBS special is the perpetuation of the two-party system where image takes precedence over the wisdom
Where catchy political phrases are served at fast-food culture
Where straight teeth in your boa is more important than the words out of her campaign
bait is the way to being selected
"Willie Horton or ...? How could it not be elected?
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation TV is the reflection or the director
She does not imitate, or we imitate her
For a child watches 1500 murders before age 12
And we wonder how we've created a Jason generation that learns to laugh
rather than abhor the horror TV
is the place where armchair generals and quarterbacks
can experience firsthand the excitement of war video with the theme that plays in the background
Comedy syrupy sweet flavor we are left with a bad actor While pop stars
metamorphose into soda pop stars You saw the video
, you hear the song
Well now to buy a good drink, the only cola I support
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
Back again, new and improved return to our irregularly scheduled Escondido
skillfully large breasts, beer and car ads
CNN, ESPN, ABC, BCB, TNT but mostly BS
Donate contradictory language as virtually flawless
Fresh frozen, half full and military intelligence
They are becoming standard
TV is the place where phrases are redefined
Como: recession are necessary cuts
Crude Oil "on a beach is" mousse "
" killing civilians "are" collateral damage "
And if you're killed by your own army is now called friendly fire
TV is the place where the pursuit of happiness has become Trivial in search
Where toothpaste and cars have become sex objects Where is extracted
imagination of children by a cathode ray tube TV is the only
nurse that would create a cripple Television
the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance
and feeding radiation TV, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
radiation
One nation, Under
God has become a nation under the influence of a drug
Television, the drug of the nation Breeding ignorance and feeding
