DXM vs. a religion we call the media: the day the world shat its pants :: essays research papers
DAY ONE â€Å"I don’t know. I drink half-a-bottle of cough syrup and I end up with this ingenious poem. Go figure†     â€Å"Well I suppose I’ll give it a try.†DAY TWO      â€Å"Dude, look at this painting I did because of the cough syrup.†          â€Å"See dude, I told you. It makes you smarter.†     â€Å"Totally.†Then they tell two friends And they tell two friends And they tell two friends And so on And so on GENERATIONS LATER Soon word gets around to big names Big names tell the right people The right people turn DXM into a pill designed, Not to prevent coughs,                                    But to, As it says on the box it comes in,                                    Make you smarter. DXM becomes mainstream A household substance approved by the FDA Everybody does it Everybody likes it Everybody wants it      Except for those metalling kids who hate everything that is mainstream. MORE GENERATIONS PASS Those metalling kids grow up Get hair cuts Get jobs Get married And have metalling kids of their own Their own metalling kids grow up and have more metalling kids      Out of all the metalling kids populated in this world, one of them catches a break and becomes a big rock star      He’s looked up to      Idolized and praised      By millions of metalling kids who hate mainstream JUST LIKE HIM So he’s up there. His name is thrown all over the media. His name is big. His name means something. It means â€Å"I HATE MAINSTREAM†and â€Å"I'M A METALLING KID, JUST LIKE ALL OF YOU†â€Å"I'M YOUNG†â€Å"I'M CUTE†And â€Å"I'M REBELLIOUS†And now that all of you look up to me I can’t let you down I gotta find something I can attack      And I gotta rock      And I gotta roll And I gotta rock and roll hard So I ask myself â€Å" what am I gonna attack?†And I answer myself â€Å"I'm gonna attack mainstream.†And I ask myself again â€Å" what am I gonna attack that is mainstream?†And again, I answer myself by sayingâ€Å" the mainstream I am going to attack is a little old miracle substance forever known as DXM†So our little metalling rock star goes into hiding for a while trying to find all the dirt he can about DXM: the drug that makes you                smarter. Days pass Weeks pass Months pass And all the while All the fans All over the world           Are splitting up into two categories      The Appalled and The Obsessed The Appalled say      He’s gone, and he’s never commin back, EVER It’s time to move on. And The Obsessed say      Just you wait. He’s commin back and is gonna be better then ever                     And I'm gonna be waitin                          Right here. And believe it or not, a whole year passes.
