1. Protest as entertainment
The epistemology of television has to be reaching its limits.

2. Music is a powerful part of protest and revolution.
Just look at South Africa.

3. Yeah, and I refered to the protest itself AS entertainment
I was referring to North America where the epistemology of television is pervasive.

5. Transcription of lyrics
Stop! in the name of health
Don't cut my Medicare!

Hey Obama I'm aware of where you're going
Each time you talk about cuts
You're telling the Deficit Commission
To try to cut my health and education

But this time don't treat me like dirt
Leaving me sick and hurt
Think it over
Think it over

Stop! in the name of health
Don't cut my Medicare!
Stop in the name of health
Don't cut my Medicare!
Think it over
Think it over

I've known of you pretending to be nice
I even fell for it maybe once or twice
But are all those corporate donations
Worth more than my health and education?

But this time we are up in arms
Totally resisting your charms
Think it over
Think it over

Stop! in the name of health
Don't cut my Medicare!
Stop in the name of health
Don't cut my Medicare!
Think it over
Think it over

I tried so hard, so hard to be patient
Hoping you would stop this desecration
But each time you politicians gather
I'm so afraid I'll lose Medicare forever

Stop! in the name of health
Don't cut my Medicare!
Stop in the name of health
Don't cut my Medicare!
Stop!
