Love or Hate?


I’ve heard quote, about insanity, man
Doing the same thing, again and again
Though I’m sure, that’s some stupid misquoting
Them platitudes man, wisdom corrupting

So that’s what you mean by signifiers
Snake eating its tail, like tangled wires
Posting quotes on social stories
Acting like wisdom repositories

[Chorus]
I’m just your average Joe, John Carpenter
Through the looking glass, I’m a billboard hunter
“Obey”, “consume”, “conform”, “don’t think, mister”
Frame them as wellness, hide the messenger

If only they’re dead, living as aliens
But they live! They all live as real humans
When life sucks, and truth serves no purpose
Can’t blame folks for wanting bread and circus

Maybe that’s why, I wanna be a gadfly
Be grounded when all aspires to fly
Asking those in meditation: “The fuck?”
Let them see that our life does really suck

[Chorus]

I’m just your average Joe, pal
Ain’t smart enough to do philosophy
But your wisdom ain’t got a point
If it’s just ‘bout heaven and not the earth

[Chorus]
I’m just your average Joe, John Carpenter
Through the looking glass, I’m a billboard hunter
“Obey”, “consume”, “conform”, “don’t think, mister”
Frame them as wellness, hide the messenger
