[00:00:00] Television The Drug Of The Nation - The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
[00:00:31] One nation under God' has turned into
[00:00:36] One nation under the influence of one drug
[00:00:41] Television, the drug of the nation
[00:00:44] Breedin' ignorance an' feedin' radiation
[00:00:47] On television, the drug of the nation
[00:00:49] Breedin' ignorance an' feedin' radiation
[00:00:52] TV, its satellite links
[00:00:55] Our 'United States of Unconsciousness'
[00:00:58] Apathetic, therapeutic an' extremely addictive
[00:01:03] The methadone metronome pumpin' out
[00:01:06] 150 channels, 24 hours a day
[00:01:09] You can flip through all of them
[00:01:11] An' still there's nothin' worth watchin'
[00:01:14] TV is the reason why less than 10 per cent
[00:01:17] Of our nation reads books daily
[00:01:19] Why most people think Central America means Kansas
[00:01:22] Socialism means Unamerican
[00:01:25] An' Apartheid is a new headache remedy
[00:01:31] Absorbed in its world, it's so hard to find us
[00:01:34] It shapes our minds the most
[00:01:37] Maybe the mother of our nation should remind us
[00:01:39] That we're sittin' too close
[00:01:42] To the television, the drug of the nation
[00:01:45] Breedin' ignorance an' feedin' radiation
[00:01:47] On television, the drug of the nation
[00:01:50] Breedin' ignorance an' feedin' radiation
[00:01:53] TV is the stompin' ground for political candidates
[00:01:57] Where bears in the woods are chased
[00:01:59] By Grecian formula'd bald eagles
[00:02:04] TV is mechanized politics' remote control
[00:02:08] Over the masses
[00:02:09] Co-sponsored by environmentally safe gases
[00:02:12] Watch for the PBS special
[00:02:15] It's the perpetuation of the two party system
[00:02:19] Where image takes precedence over wisdom
[00:02:22] Where sound bite politics are served
[00:02:24] To the fast food culture
[00:02:26] Where straight teeth in your mouth are more important
[00:02:29] Than the words that come out of it
[00:02:31] Race baiting is the way to get selected
[00:02:34] Willie Horton or Will he not get elected?
[00:02:37] On television, the drug of the nation
[00:02:40] Breedin' ignorance an' feedin' radiation
[00:02:42] On television, the drug of the nation
[00:02:45] Breedin' ignorance an' feedin' radiation
[00:02:59] TV, is it the reflector or the director ?
[00:03:03] Does it imitate us or do we imitate it?
[00:03:05] Because a child watches 1500 murders before he's 12 years old
[00:03:11] An' we wonder why we've created a Jason generation
[00:03:13] That learns to laugh rather than to abhor the horror
[00:03:21] TV is the place where armchair generals
[00:03:24] An' quarterbacks can experience first hand
[00:03:26] The excitement of video warfare
[00:03:29] As the theme song is sung in the background
[00:03:33] Sugar sweet sitcoms that leave us with a bad actor taste
[00:03:37] While pop stars metamorphosize into soda pop stars
[00:03:43] You saw the video, you heard the soundtrack
[00:03:46] Well, now go buy the soft drink
[00:03:48] Well, the only cola that I support
[00:03:51] Would be a Union C.O.L.A., cost of living allowance
[00:03:54] On television, the drug of the nation
[00:03:57] Breedin' ignorance an' feedin' radiation
[00:04:00] On television, the drug of the nation
[00:04:02] Breedin' ignorance an' feedin' radiation
[00:04:17] Back again, 'new an' improved'
[00:04:18] We return to our irregularly programmed schedule
[00:04:22] Hidden cleverly between heavy breasted beer
[00:04:25] An' car commercials
[00:04:27] CNN, ESPN, ABC, BCB, TNT but mostly B.S.
[00:04:35] Where oxymoronic language like 'virtually spotless'
[00:04:41] 'Fresh, frozen', 'light yet filling'
[00:04:44] An' 'Military Intelligence' have become standard
[00:04:49] TV is a place where phrases are redefined
[00:04:52] Like 'recession' to 'necessary downturn'
[00:04:55] 'Crude oil' on a beach to 'mousse'
[00:04:58] 'Civilian death' to 'collateral damages'
[00:05:02] An' being killed by your own army
[00:05:04] Is now called 'Friendly fire'
[00:05:11] TV is the place where the pursuit of happiness
