Too Dumb to Die Lyrics

Oh, oh I love you
Oh, oh I do
I got a sentimental illness for you
Please don't go away, oh yeah

I was a high school atom bomb
Going off on the weekends
Smoking dope and mowing lawns
And I hated all the new trends

Me and my friends sang
Woh-uh-oh-oh-oh
It's true, the middle of the road
At least it's better than here

Looking for a cause
Well all I got was Santa Claus
I'm hanging on a dream that's too dumb to die
I feel like a cello
Lost somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high, too scared to dream
But too dumb to die

My daddy always was on strike
Going off with the teamsters
He said that everything will be alright
Not every Sunday can be Easter

The picket line screamed woh-uh-oh-oh-oh
Don't cross, don't cross the line
Because you'll be a scab, not a martyr

Looking for a cause
Well all I got was camouflage
I'm hanging on a dream that's too dumb to die
I feel like a cello
Lost somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high, too scared to dream
But too dumb to

Looking for a cause
Well all I got was camouflage
I'm hanging on a dream that's too dumb to die
I feel like a cello
Lost somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high, too scared to dream
But too dumb to die

What is the Meaning of Too Dumb to Die?

Ever feel like you're stuck in a cycle of youthful rebellion and dreams that seem just out of reach? This song captures that vibe perfectly. It's about the struggles of growing up, feeling lost, and clinging to dreams even when they seem foolish. The lyrics recount teenage years filled with defiance and searching for purpose, symbolized by the protagonist's father on strike and his own disillusionment with societal norms. The recurring theme is holding onto hope, no matter how naive it might seem. Ultimately, it's a tribute to those who dream big despite the odds. #YouthRebellion #Dreamers #NeverGiveUp
