Anything Jesus Does I Can Do Better
The Locust Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everyday I add to the list of people
Who can kiss my ass
And imagine Mr. W
Sucking the fuck out of it.

What is your astrological sign?
Stop. Stop!
Funny, hahaha.

Would the owner of an ounce of dignity
Please contact the mall security?





Not funny, no, no.
Not funny, nope.

Overall Meaning

The Locust's "Anything Jesus Does I Can Do Better" is a satirical and provocative song that critiques religious and societal norms. The lyrics are filled with sarcasm and irreverence, challenging the idea of blind faith and the authority of figures like Jesus. The opening lines, "Everyday I add to the list of people/Who can kiss my ass/And imagine Mr. W/Sucking the fuck out of it," express a rebellion against conformity and a desire for personal autonomy. The reference to "Mr. W" is unclear, but it could be interpreted as a mockery of religious figures like Jesus, suggesting that even they are not above ridicule.


The next lines, "What is your astrological sign?/Stop. Stop!/Funny, hahaha," can be seen as a jab at the futility of horoscopes and similar trends that people follow blindly without questioning. The abrupt "stop" suggests that the singer doesn't want to hear about it and finds it ridiculous. The following lines, "Would the owner of an ounce of dignity/Please contact the mall security?/Not funny, no, no./Not funny, nope," take aim at social norms and expectations, implying that people who conform to them lack dignity or self-respect.


Overall, "Anything Jesus Does I Can Do Better" is a song that challenges authority, conformity, and societal norms, using sarcasm and irreverence as a tool.

This is weirdly catchy. I guess punk isn't dead; whatever doesn't kill you makes you stranger.
