lyrics

Manufacture of Consent

"Another drone killed some villager too far away"
That's all my tele-screen had for me to say today,
right before I was told to better run and buy
if I wanted demands in supply.

Don't be afraid.
You're born into this game and then lead astray.
Don't run, don't hide: Refuse to play.
Don't be afraid.
We'll all rise up above the grain
and take off our blinders in the light of day.

This consensus trance is all around,
fueled by liquid death from underground.
Complacent, ignoring inaction,
blind to what is wrong.
Conformed and distracted,
mass-media circus, transgenic bread...
This will end in dread.

Mass-media will tell you that you're wrong
and still muchly, mostly ignored.

The manufacture of consent:
being brainwashed and perverted intellect.
This ecocidal culture has gone insane
and now it's time to rise.

La Manufactura del Consentimiento

"Otro caza tele-dirigido ha matado un aldeano demasiado alejado"
Eso es todo lo que mi tele-pantalla tenía que contarme hoy,
justo antes de que se me dijera que debiera salir corriendo a comprar
si quería mi demanda en oferta.

No temas.
Naces en el seno de este juego y luego eres abandonado.
No huyas, no te escondas: Niégate a jugar.
No temas.
Todos nos alzaremos a contracorriente
y nos quitaremos los cegadores a plena luz del día.

Este trance consensuado nos envuelve,
carburado por muerte líquida del subsuelo.
Complaciente, ignorando la inacción,
ciego ante lo que está mal.
Conforme y distraído,
circo mediático, pan transgénico...
Esto acabará en algo aterrador.

Los medios de masas te dirán que estás equivocado
y sobretodo seguirás siendo ignorado.

La manufactura del consentimiento:
Lavado de cerebro y perversión del intelecto.
Está cultura ecocida se ha vuelto demente
y ahora es momento de alzarse.

My all time favourite band. They stick to a simple formula their whole career and have mastered it in such an un parralelled fashion. Awesome people when I met them in Newcastle, Australia in 2010 as well. All hail the punk kings deehall666
