Disorder
Kronik Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
enemy, crooked, paranoia
We'll get rid of it
Kill the beast
Hang the corpse
For all to see
Sex; beatiful, natural, needed,
We'll get rid of it
Hold the body
Skin smells good
Modem world; Credit card, microwave,
synthesizer, S.D.I., space shuttle, computer
We'll get used to it
Aids, cundom, fast cars, Hi-Fi, microchip,
VCR, sequencer
We'll get used to it
Push your brain, win the game
Take your chance, break the chain
All through out centuries, wise men did so.
Kronik's song Disorder is an examination of the modern world and the institutions that shape it. The lyrics portray a cynical view of society and religion, and suggest that we need to get rid of false practices and beliefs that are detrimental to our lives. The first verse focuses on false religion, describing it as brainwashing and crooked. Kronik advocates for getting rid of it, by figuratively killing the beast and hanging the corpse for all to see. This can be seen as a call to action against blindly following religion and to instead find our own path.
The second verse tackles the topic of sex, presenting it as a beautiful and natural part of life that is necessary. Kronik argues that the body should be held, and its smell appreciated. This can be seen as a celebration of sexuality and physical intimacy, in contrast to the oppressive attitude towards it in many societies.
The final verse is a reflection on the modern world and its technological advancements. Kronik acknowledges that we'll have to get used to things like credit cards, microwaves, and space shuttles. He also mentions AIDS, condoms, and microchips in a nod to contemporary issues. The lyrics suggest that we need to be adaptable and embrace change, but also caution against becoming too reliant on technology.
Overall, Disorder is a song that critiques elements of modern society and institutions, while also encouraging freedom and adaptability.
