wonder why you're so despised
Why don't you just tell us what we all wanna hear
Why don't you just tell us what we all wanna hear
Brought this country down was that your aim
Brought this country down just for fame
Why don't you just tell us what we all wanna hear
Why don't you just tell us what we all wanna hear
wonder why you're so despised
The Varukers's song "Tell Us What We All Wanna Hear" is a political commentary on the corrupt nature of those in power. The lyrics suggest that the people in charge are responsible for the downfall of their country, but instead of taking responsibility, they continue to fill the public with their lies and corruption. The repeated line "Why don't you just tell us what we all wanna hear" implies a sense of frustration with the lack of honesty and transparency from those in power.
The phrase "Fill us with your corruption and your lies still you wonder why you're so despised" conveys the idea that the public is aware of the dishonesty of those in power and therefore hold them in contempt. The lines "Brought this country down was that your aim/Brought this country down just for fame" suggests that some individuals in power may be motivated by personal gain rather than the betterment of their country.
Overall, the song serves as a call for honesty and accountability from those in positions of power, and encourages the public to demand transparency from their leaders.
