Idiots Are Taking Over

NOFX

Transposer:

It’s not the right time to be sober Now the idiots have taken over Spreading like a social cancer is there an answer? Mensa membership conceding Tell me why and how are all the stupid people breeding Watson it’s really elementary The industrial revolution Has flipped the bitch on evolution   The benevolent and wise are being thwarted ostracized what a bummer The world keeps getting dumber Insensitivity is standard and faith is being fancied over reason Darwin’s rolling over in his coffin The fittest are surviving much less often Now everything seems to be reversing and it’s worsening Someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool Now angry mob mentality’s no longer the exception it’s the rule And I’m starting to feel a lot like Charlton Heston Stranded on a primate planet Apes and orangutans that ran it to the ground With generals and the armies that obeyed them Followers following fables Philosophies that enable them to rule without regard       There’s no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated Political scientists get the same one vote as some Arkansas inbred Majority rule don’t work in mental institutions Sometimes the smallest softest voice carries the grand   Biggest solutions What are we left with? A nation of god-fearing pregnant nationalists Who feel it’s their duty to populate the homeland Pass on traditions How to get ahead religions And prosperity via simpleton culture The idiots are taking over   The idiots are taking over The idiots are taking over   The idiots are taking over

La chanson évoque la montée de l'ignorance et la manière dont elle menace notre société. Elle dépeint un monde où la bêtise semble prévaloir sur la sagesse, illustrant comment des opinions infondées prennent le pas sur la raison. Le texte met en lumière la contradiction entre l'évolution et la façon dont certains comportements regressent, évoquant une réalité où des croyances simplistes dominent, au détriment de la pensée critique. Ce morceau peut résonner particulièrement dans un monde où les informations vont vite et peuvent parfois mener à des décisions irrationnelles. En cela, il se pose en critique de l'état actuel de notre société, où les valeurs et les réflexions semblent souvent négligées au profit d'une conformité aveugle.
