Experts on television

Four experts seated at a curved desk participating in a live news panel discussion

Experts on television, they explain the situation,
Every night another show, another explanation.
They talk about the problems, they talk about the pain,
But tomorrow comes and nothing ever changes again.

They ask why children carry guns,
Why people lose their way.
They count the broken houses,
But never stop decay.

They speak with perfect sentences,
With numbers and statistics.
But people in the streets can see…
The truth behind the politics.

From one show to another,
They tell us what they know.
But every empty promise
Is another painful blow.

Stop insulting our intelligence,
We can see what’s going on.
The answer isn’t hidden,
The truth has been here all along.

Bring the laws, make them stronger,
Let them be a shield.
A warning for the ones who hurt,
A promise for the people healed.

They ask why crimes are rising,
Why young lives disappear.
Why houses change their owners,
Three times in just one year.

They search for complicated answers,
They make the simple blind.
But every person knows the difference
Between wrong and right inside.

We don’t need more speeches,
We don’t need another debate.
We need justice standing firmly,
Before it’s too late.

Stop insulting our intelligence,
We can see what’s going on.
The answer isn’t hidden,
The truth has been here all along.

Bring the laws, make them stronger,
Let them be a shield.
Everyone will think twice
Before they choose to steal.

Write the rules and respect them,
Let nobody stand above.
Let the guilty face the judgment,
Let the victims find some love.

No more empty conversations,
No more cameras and lies.
A society is built by actions,
Not by words on television screens.

Stop insulting our intelligence,
We are tired of the show.
We don’t need more explanations
For the things we already know.

Bring the laws, make them stronger,
Let justice lead the way.
Those who choose to hurt another
Will answer for that day.

Experts on television…
Still talking through the night.
But the people in the streets
Are waiting for what’s right.
