» What’s Your Addiction? | One Dollar Jackpot - 25 Words or Less Competition

What are you addicted to? Don’t be shy - I know you’re addicted to something. Who isn’t?

I’m addicted to oxygen - I tried to go cold turkey once but just one breath isn’t enough.

What I don’t understand is people who are addicted to mid-day television. It’s the WORST garbage and most horribly acted/lit/written stuff ever. Please don’t tell me you are - I’m going to cry.

Well that’s it for me - I’ve gotta go watch a video I taped earlier, about some days telling stories about my lives…

One nation under god has turned into
one nation under the influence of one drug

(chorus)
Television, the drug of the nation
Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation

T.V., it satellite links
our united states of unconsciousness
apathetic therapeutic and extremely addictive
the methadone metronome pumping out
150 channels 24 hours a day
you can flip through all of them
and still there’s nothing worth watching
T.V. is the reason why less than ten percent
of our nation reads books daily
why most people think Central America means Kansas
socialism means unamerican
and apartheid is a new headache remedy
absorbed in its world it’s so hard to find us
it shapes our mind the most
maybe the mother of our nation
should remind us that we’re sitting too close to…

(chorus)
Television, the drug of the nation
Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation
