Stupid
The Frustrators Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

1, 2, 3, testing please it's broken again
1, 2, 3, you're testing me I'm broken again
I don't really know what's wrong
I don't wanna sing this song
1, 2, 3, testing me I'm broken again
I'm choking again cuz
I feel stupid I don't know which way to go
I feel stupid again

1, 2, 3, you're testing me I'm broken again
I'm choking again am I running out of time
searching for a stupid rhyme




1, 2, 3, you're testing me I've spoken again
I'm choking again

Overall Meaning

The Frustrators' song "Stupid" is about feeling lost and confused, unsure of what direction to take in life. The lyrics repeat the phrase "1, 2, 3, testing please, it's broken again" in reference to feeling like one's life is a constant series of tests and challenges that they can't seem to pass. The line "you're testing me I'm broken again" further emphasizes this feeling of being constantly tested and never measuring up.


The singer expresses frustration with not knowing what's wrong and not wanting to sing the song, implying that their situation is difficult to talk about or express. This is followed by the catchy chorus, where the singer repeats the phrase "I feel stupid" in a self-deprecating manner, expressing their uncertainty and insecurity.


The repeated use of the word "again" in the song emphasizes the cyclical nature of these feelings, as though the challenges and tests keep happening over and over, and the singer is unable to break free from them. Overall, "Stupid" is a relatable song about feeling lost, confused, and inadequate, and the struggle to find direction and purpose in life.

I made my local record store order this, (they couldn't get bored in the usa) and a bunch of pinhead gunpowder albums back in the dayyyyy.

I remember the lead singer emailed me back once. That was fucking awesome. He was the shit.
