Hey Stoopid
Alice Cooper Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You ain't alone in this ugly town
You stick a needle in your arm
You bite the dust, you buy the farm

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid
What ya tryin' to do
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid
They win you lose
Hey, hye, hey, hey, hey stoopid

C'mon girl, it's a better day
Get your foot out of that grave
Don't let that one love tear your world apart
C'mon babe, kick that stuff
Show the street it ain't so tough
Quit lyin' around with a crippled, broken heart

Now I know you've been seeing red
Don't put a pistol to your head
sometimes your answer's heaven sent
Your way is so damn permanent

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid
What ya tryin' to do
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid
They win you lose
Hey, hye, hey, hey, hey stoopid

This ain't your daddy talkin'
You know, I know
Your story ain't so shocking
You know, I know
Blow some steam
C'mon and scream

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid
What ya tryin' to do
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid

They win you lose
Hey, hye, hey, hey, hey stoopid

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Alice Cooper's Hey Stoopid are a hopeful message to someone who is struggling with addiction and self-destructive behavior. The opening lines urge the listener to slow down and take life at a different pace. The lyrics remind the listener that rock and roll is about freedom and rebellion against societal norms, not about being stuck in a downward spiral. The chorus, "Hey stoopid, what ya tryin' to do?" is a reminder that our choices have consequences and that it's important to think about the long-term effects of our actions.

The second verse is directed at a woman who is also dealing with addiction and heartbreak. The message is the same: it's never too late to turn your life around and make positive changes. The line "sometimes your answer's heaven sent" suggests that the answer to our problems might come in unexpected ways – maybe from a friend, a random occurrence or even a small gesture that can change our lives forever.

The final section of the song is a call to action – to blow off some steam and scream. It's a reminder that sometimes releasing our frustration and anger is the best way to move forward. The repetition of the lines "Hey stoopid, what ya tryin' to do?" and "They win, you lose" is a motivator to take control of our lives and not let societal pressures or addiction win.

Line by Line Meaning

Hey bro, take it slow
Hey, friend, slow down and don't rush through life

You ain't livin' in a video
Life is not like a music video, it's real and has consequences

You're flying low with a high velocity
You're living recklessly and at great speed

No doubt, you're stressin' out
It's clear that you're under a lot of pressure and anxiety

That ain't what rock n' roll's about
Living a dangerous and self-destructive lifestyle is not what being a rebel is all about

Get off that one way trip down lonely street
Stop going down a path that leads you to a life of isolation and despair

Now I know you've been kicked around
I understand that life has been tough on you

You ain't alone in this ugly town
You're not the only one who is struggling to survive in this harsh world

You stick a needle in your arm
You're using drugs to cope with your pain

You bite the dust, you buy the farm
If you continue on this path, you will end up dead

C'mon girl, it's a better day
There is hope for a brighter future, don't give up

Get your foot out of that grave
Stop living like you're already dead and burying yourself deeper into despair

Don't let that one love tear your world apart
Don't let a bad relationship destroy your life

C'mon babe, kick that stuff
Stop using drugs, it's killing you

Show the street it ain't so tough
Prove to yourself and everyone else that you can overcome your struggles

Quit lyin' around with a crippled, broken heart
Stop feeling sorry for yourself and start healing from your emotional pain

Now I know you've been seeing red
I understand that you're consumed by anger and frustration

Don't put a pistol to your head
Don't let your negative feelings lead you to taking your own life

sometimes your answer's heaven sent
Sometimes the solution to your problems comes from a higher power

Your way is so damn permanent
Suicide is a permanent solution to temporary problems

This ain't your daddy talkin'
I'm not trying to be a parental figure or lecture you

You know, I know
We both understand the realities of life

Your story ain't so shocking
Your struggles and hardships are not unique, many others are going through the same thing

Blow some steam
Let out your frustration and rage in a healthy way

C'mon and scream
Release your emotions and let it all out

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid What ya tryin' to do Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid They win you lose Hey, hye, hey, hey, hey stoopid
Stop making dumb decisions that lead to your downfall, don't let others bring you down, rise up and take control of your life

It's amazing how I could never, ever, get tired of listening to this
song. I've heard this song from the radio and listened to this song from
the record probably a million times and still this never gets old.

This song has been part of my life's soundtrack ever since this was
aired on the radio for the first time. Fucking 26 years! From my
childhood through youth to adult life...this song has always been there,
a true and timeless classic that just can't be outshined by anything or
anyone...

Get your foot out of that grave
Don’t let that one love tear your world apart
Come on, babe, kick that stuff

@@davidfuller4110Yes it is Joe, and the crazy part about revisiting this album after I switched from bass too guitar as a result of Joe and "Surfing with the alien" only to learn Joe and Steve Vai played on it was one of the craziest discoveries of My teenage years playing guitar.

Perhaps it was this video which subconsciously planted the seed for My love of Ibanez JS guitars which I only discovered 5 years or so later?

In revisiting this video only to see Ozzy doing backup vocals 30 years later, I guess the message of this song is to choose life over death if only to spite the "They" this song refers to as who else could discover such a thing and realise that I am only 1 degree of separation from the Sabbath legends as a result of My Dad being born in Birmingham and how I have shaken hands with both Joe and Steve in the course of My life who both contributed to this incredible album.

I guess My reptilian creator Snakebite(byte) actually does have some love for Me which makes dealing with the haters and the fact that the "Me" who "lives in a video" as technology has reached the stage where I and My human avatar can be digitally inserted into any "video" ever recorded by Man as I can be deepfaked, cloned and replicated as can anyone else. In saying this, whilst the value of life and the identity of the individual has been relegated to be worthless as a result of there being no scarcity, no differentiation between people and their lives.

As a time capsule of that preteen period of My life when I was naive and innocent, with dreams, hopes and aspirations of a future where I could live out My dream life as opposed to letting the video version of Me live the dream life I gave him only for Me to get sent to Hell as a prisoner of finances and other's agendas, at least this song and video with it's practical effects serves as a historical reminder of what society once had, yet was lost, all as a result of the internet and technology allowing humans to become Gods of information only to have stupidly rendered themselves to be irrelevant in the process.

About 3 years ago, I was battling depression. I would go days without sleeping, I wasn’t eating, I was hurting myself and I was just a mess. I had my suicide planned, and just needed an opportunity. Until I found out that a few months out, Alice Cooper would be having a concert in my town. I had never seen him live, and I had a sudden revelation: was I really going to die before I got to see Alice Cooper in concert? Silly as it sounded, that was my reality check. I called into a crisis line, got information for a local psychiatrist, and soon got into therapy and was put on medication.

I got to see Alice in concert, I’m a junior in college and on the way to my first major internship, and, well, I’m alive. So, in a way, Alice Cooper saved my life. I hope that one day I get to meet him so I can tell him this personally.

Depression, anxiety, PTSD are all REAL and should be treated. Its NOT weakness. I have my own demons and wear my Saint Dymphna medal every day to remind me of those who continue to suffer. I've seen too many people lose their battle. Or as my father said, apply a "permanent solution to a temporary problem". God bless you young lady. Im NOT Alice Cooper but I wish you all the best in the world and ill tell ya from personal experience......this life DOES get a Little easier (not much but a little) after you have stared into the void......puts stuff into perspective.

Absolutely. Im a recovering addict and through out my journey through recovery I listened to this often. Watching it now, having been almost 3 years clean, with a CDCA degree, two beautiful baby girls and a wonderful husband, I look back on those days and it's literally like looking at a whole different world. It's almost like a am a whole new human being and in a way, I am. Recovery isn't just about sobriety. It's about changing your whole way of life, coping, thinking, everything. It's like a total factory reset on a phone lol. But it's a beautiful thing. Alice has always been a huge inspiration to me seeing as how he is a recovering addict as well. Ive seen him live 5 times and each time is better than the next. He's out lived, out Shined, and out done every single one of the greats who also fell victim to addiction. It takes a very strong soul to do that. Especially when it's everywhere like it was with him. Being able to stay sober as a celebrity is harder than anything I imagine. You hardly have any reason to quit. No worries about homelessness, no worries about money, dope sickness, jail time, nothing. He had every reason to be able to keep using and still he fucking beat addiction with flying colors 😄🥰

I was born in 1984, and from the time I was about 20ish until I was 38, I had been writing lyrics while continuously hearing the "hey hey hey hey" chant I my head. I searched for years, trying to figure out what song it was until finally I decided I had just made it up in my head. I wrote a song with that exact vocal chant/melody. It was literally in 2022 that I "rediscovered" this song because I read an article that said Slash wrote the guitar to a song called Hey Stoopid, so I wanted to listen to his work that I was unfamiliar with. From watching this video, I think that might have been false, but it doesn't matter because I finally got to hear this song again. That chant is one of the catchiest vocal melodies of all time, and I'm so happy that I found this song again. I probably hadn't heard it since I was around 7 or 8 years old, and it stuck in my head for decades without knowing what it was or where it came from. It sucks a little that I realized I copyrighted this song to write my own now, but it's OK as I never even wrote music to it, let alone recorded it lol Such a simple but incredibly catchy line!

There's just something about that opening riff and that stove top sparking at the same time that gives me butterflies every damn time. I remember when I was something like 11-12 we couldn't afford a guitar and I would listen to this album for hours and play every song on this album on a tennis racket (nobody in my family has ever played tennis) and a penny for a pick.
