Abstract


Abstract
The Article aims to describe that social criticism not only can be yelled through protest, but also through the lyrics of the song. Social criticism lyrics of the song, in general, addressed to the government, state officials, and Indonesia politicians. The issues discussed in this paper is the social behavior of state officials and politicians in the Orde Baru and Era Reformasi, as well as the vocabulary used by the composer to encode the events that occurred at that time. The data of this paper were collected through listening methods using downloading technique and recording. The data were analyzed with the theory of dynamic model of meaning (Kecskes, 2007), which states that a person’s knowledge of the world may be encoded in the lexical item as a mixture of general knowledge associated with the provision concept, the wordspecific semantic properties (lexicalization knowledge of the world) , and culture-specific conceptual properties. It is something new because during the analysis of social criticism lyrics of the song are dominated by semiotic theory and discourse theory. This paper found four types of behavior of state officials encoded in the lyrics of social criticism, namely (a) the behavior of enriching themselves by corruption the country money, (b) behavior of justifying a variety of ways to get the desired positions, (c) the behavior of being dared to violate religious norms to get the treasure, and (d) the behavior of being happy to commit fornication.
Keywords: social critics, behavior, encode, song lyrics, state officials
