Nothing Is Built to Be Repaired

“Nothing Is Built to Be Repaired” is an original satirical story song about planned obsolescence, disposable products, and a modern world designed to replace everything instead of fixing it. Once, a broken radio, appliance, or machine could be opened, understood, and repaired. Now the parts are sealed, the software expires, the warranty ends, and buying another one is usually easier than finding someone allowed to fix it. But this disposable attitude doesn’t stop with our possessions—it slowly works its way into our jobs, relationships, communities, and lives. With intelligent lyrics, dry humor, and a thought-provoking message, “Nothing Is Built to Be Repaired” asks what happens when convenience becomes waste—and replacing something becomes more natural than saving it.
