Chunk Song
The Bouncing Souls Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

To old to bother
To young to care
Standing all alone
Lost in my mind somewhere
So many unknown questions
I've got to take another step
On this sole adventure
Why is it I can't see
What I need to be
I wish I had some ideas
About my destiny

I don't know what it is I'm looking for
I can't find it anywhere
I never felt like this before
I got no ideas what is I try to find
I've got a strange feeling
I'm lost in my own mind

Why is it I can't see
What I need to be
I wish I had some ideas
About my destiny

To old to bother




To young to care
(A bunch o' times)

Overall Meaning

The Bouncing Souls's song Chunk Song speaks to the feeling of being lost in one's own mind, confused about one's place in life, unsure of what to do next or what one's destiny might be. The opening lines of the song immediately set the tone for this introspective journey. The singer feels caught between two extremes, too old to bother with certain things, but too young to truly know what to care about. This paradoxical state of being leaves the singer standing all alone, lost in their own thoughts, unable to sort out the many questions they have.


Throughout the song, the singer expresses a desire to see things more clearly, to have "some ideas about [their] destiny." They are aware that they are on a "sole adventure" and that they must take another step forward regardless of the uncertainty they feel. However, the more they search for answers, the more they seem to come up empty-handed. The singer doesn't know what they're looking for, but they know it's something they can't find anywhere. They've never felt like this before and they've got a strange feeling that they are lost in their own mind.


The chorus repeats the opening lines of the song, emphasizing this feeling of uncertainty that permeates the singer's life. Ultimately, the Chunk Song speaks to the universal human experience of feeling lost, confused, and uncertain, despite a desire for greater clarity and purpose.
