Utilitarian Lyrics

Cover art for Utilitarian lyrics by Spoon

I think he's facing a challenge when he sings,

"I walked for forty-six blocks you've been putting it off but come on I've got meat in my arms I've got steel in my teeth so come on"

btw, I always thought the steel in his teeth were fillings, but I like the idea that he can chew over anything thrown at him.

He seems to have a warrior's perspecitve in this one, like it's his battle song. At the same time, there's a definite "I'm bored" outlook implied I think by:

"making out taking out it's utilitarian heartache adulate the utilitarian"

The last line, "when I walk down the steps I'm just halfway across the world." means maybe that motivating yourself to do something is the biggest challenge.

But yeah, the uuuuuuuUUUtilitarian is the best part.
