Smart Lyrics

Hey, it's late
I can barely see straight
You're barely standing out
You talk, you feel
You wanted something that's real
I am pretending now

I know that you're smart
You mentioned it before
You can read and write
I bet baby, you perform

Aim low
You just met me I know
But I feel something right now
So aim low
Just let yourself go
All I need is tonight yeah

Tonight could be kept between
You and me
I don't need to know your name
You aim is off
Just boys in here and they're soft
I'll give you something to tame

I know that you're smart
You mentioned it before
You can read and write
I bet baby, you perform

Aim low
You just met me I know
But I feel something right now
So aim low
Just let yourself go
All I need is tonight yeah

Easy! This song is about the absurdity of drunken nightlife.

I’ve seen it before. Aim low. No morals, and they don’t care. Give into your inhibitions because it’s just us. They don’t know anything about each other, aaaand one of them might even be married…yet they still decide to take each other home just because they’re trashed. “I don’t need to know your name, I’ll bet you can read and write, I have zero morals…that’s good enough for me.”

Resonating along with other helmet songs! this is simply a mockery about low class/low moral humans who are compounded in their stupidity and bad choices, this time by excessive alcohol. A stain on society.
