I Don't Seem to Care
Buck-O-Nine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't seem to care about
Going' to school
The golden rule
Reading a book
The president's a crook

moral values
A nightly news
Gettin' a job
That I'm a beer drinking slob

some people call me apathetic
(but at least I don't read dianetics)

I don't seem to care about
Hypocrites
Politics




Hippy chicks
Porno flicks

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Buck-O-Nine's song "I Don't Seem To Care" are a reflection of the apathy and indifference the singer feels towards society and its expectations. The opening lines suggest a disregard for education and moral values, with the singer dismissing the importance of going to school and following the golden rule. This lack of interest also extends to reading books and keeping up with the news, as the singer sees the president as a crook and describes themselves as a "beer drinking slob."


The chorus of the song acknowledges that some people might call the singer "apathetic," but they don't see the value in conforming to societal norms and expectations. The second verse continues with this theme, with the singer expressing a lack of interest in hypocrites, politics, hippy chicks, and pornography.


Overall, "I Don't Seem To Care" can be interpreted as a critique of American society and its expectations, with the singer rejecting the idea that success or happiness can be achieved through conformity or adherence to social norms. Instead, they embrace their own apathy and disinterest as a rejection of mainstream values.
