Stupidity
Undertakers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey! (Hey!)
Everybody! (Everybody!)

All around the world...
Every boy and girl
Take a lesson from me
And do the Stupidity
Mama says I look so silly
My Papa says I look like a fool
But I don't mind criticism
Cause I get it every day at school

Now come along with me
See how much fun it can be
And watch it on TV
Oh baby that's the Stupidity

Mama says I look so silly
My Papa says I look like a fool
But I don't mind criticism
Cause I get it every day at school

Now come along with me
See how much fun it can be
Watch it on TV
Oh baby that's the Stupidity

You make me feel so good
Just like I knew you would
Woah yeah




Now I feel alright
Hey hey I feel alright!

Overall Meaning

The Undertakers' song "Stupidity" is a catchy, upbeat tune that encourages listeners to embrace their foolishness and let loose. The lyrics are simple but effective, with the singer declaring that despite being told they look silly or like a fool, they don't mind criticism because they get it every day at school. The chorus invites everyone to join in and do "the Stupidity," promising it will be fun and even suggesting they watch it on TV.


At its core, "Stupidity" seems to be a celebration of youth and rebellion. It's a song that encourages listeners to let go of their inhibitions and embrace their wild side, even if it means looking ridiculous. The lyrics imply that conformity and following the rules are boring, and that it's much more fun to let loose and be silly. It's a sentiment that could easily apply to any generation, but feels particularly fitting for the rock and roll era in which the song was written.
