Television, the curse of the nation,
Feeding ignorance from channel to channel, from station to station.
Television, the curse of the nation,
We are glued to the screen with zest and admiration.
Shallow programmes with useless information
you no grounds for thinking and creation.
Television that hasn’t taught you anything yet.
Thousands of kids without any knowledge of their alphabet.
Television, the curse of the nation,
No answers to questions and strange explanations
Giving you no ideas and no inspiration.
A lot of violence to see on the screen
And people becoming cruel and mean...
Then why generation after generation
Do we watch television with zest and fascination?
C. Read the lyrics of the song. Find its recording and listen to it. Sing the song along if you find it enjoyable.
The Best Day
(Taylor Swift)
I’m five years old, it’s getting cold, I’ve got my big coat on
I hear you laugh and look up smiling at you, I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides, look now, the sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home.
I don’t know why all the trees change in the fall
I know you’re not scared of anything at all
Don’t know if Snow White’s house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you today.
I’m thirteen now and don’t know how my friends could be so mean
I come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
And we drive and drive until we found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop till I forgot all their names.
I don’t know who I’m gonna talk to now at school
But I know I’m laughing on the car ride home with you
Don’t know how long it’s gonna take to feel ok
But I know I had the best day with you today.
I have an excellent father,
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother,
Inside and out, he’s better than I am
I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run
And I had the best days with you.
There is a video I found from back when I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you’re talking to me
It’s the age of princesses and pirate ships and the seven dwarfs
Daddy’s smart and you’re the prettiest lady in the whole wide world.
Now I know why all the trees change in the fall
I know you were on my side even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
For staying back and watching me shine
And I didn’t know if you knew
So I’m takin’ this chance to say
That I had the best day with you today.
