Stupid Questions
Keller Williams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where in the hell is here
What is the point of our knowing
Where is the view that is clear
How long does it take to get there
How long ago did we leave
How long is this road in which I stare
How long until we achieve
Whether the weather, block out the sun
Whether the weather bring rain
Whether the weather can weather this fog
Stupid Questions are to blame
Stupid Questions are to blame
Like what is the object of this game
What is the price that we pay
What is the distance of this terrain
What does it take just to play
Why are we going so fast
Why are we in this zone
Why is this cop towing my car
Why can't they leave us alone
Whether the weather, block out the sun
Whether the weather bring rain
Whether the weather can weather this fog
Stupid Questions are to blame
Stupid Questions are to blame
Like who, what, when, where, why, how much
Who, what, when, where, why, etc.
Who the hell here is responsible today
Who the hell here is alive
Who goes and its okay
Who's turn is it to drive
When did I decide to move on
Or when the wind will it be near
When did this engine light go on
When will the tow truck be here
Whether the weather, block out the sun
Whether the weather bring rain
Whether the weather can weather this fog
Stupid Questions are to blame
Stupid Questions are to blame
Like who, what, when, where, why, how much
Who, what, when, where, why.
Keller Williams's song Stupid Questions presents a series of questions that reflect the uncertainty of life and the human condition. The opening lines, "Where in the hell are we going? Where in the hell is here?" suggest a sense of disorientation and confusion, and invite the listener to reflect on the meaning of life and our place in the world. The questioning continues with an emphasis on the ambiguity and the unpredictability of our journey through life. The questions "How long does it take to get there? How long ago did we leave? How long is this road in which I stare? How long until we achieve?" reflect a desire to understand the passage of time and to establish a sense of direction and purpose.
Throughout the song, Williams plays with the concept of weather, using it as a metaphor for life's challenges and obstacles. The chorus, "Whether the weather, block out the sun. Whether the weather bring rain. Whether the weather can weather this fog. Stupid questions are to blame," highlights the idea that our inability to answer life's big questions can sometimes feel like a fog that blocks our vision and clouds our judgment.
Overall, Williams's song Stupid Questions gives voice to the existential uncertainty that many people feel but struggle to express. By raising these difficult questions about life's purpose and meaning, the song invites us to confront our own fears and insecurities, and to find peace in the midst of life's uncertainties.
