Ian Mcconnell Ep. 4: Important
[Verse 1]
I'm pretty sure that life doesn't have a meaning
And if there's a god then he doesn't look like me
And I'm just a member of the current apex species
But there will be another when the humans go extinct
We've only been around two hundred thousand years
Of thirteen and a half billion years
How can we think the pinnacle is here?
Isn't that arrogant?
There's a couple hundred billion trillion suns
And we act like it all was made for us
There ain't no way that we're the only ones
[Chorus]
I'm not important, and neither are you
So let's do whatever we wanna do
Bask in our cosmic insignificance
Soak up this blip we're livin' in
‘Cause nothing matters anyway
Isn't that great?
[Verse 2]
‘Cause humans aren't really gonna kill the planet (yay!)
We'll just make the planet unlivable for us (aww…)
But earth will keep right on spinning
Way long after we ain't in it
And life will keep right on livin'
‘Til the sun explodes and oh
[Chorus]
I'm not important, and neither are you
So let's do whatever we wanna do
Bask in our cosmic insignificance
Soak up this blip we're livin' in
‘Cause nothing matters anyway
Isn't that great?
[Bridge]
I don't mean to be a downer
I don't even think it's sad
The universe is gigantic
And it's kinda beautiful that
[Chorus]
I'm not important, and neither are you
So let's do whatever we wanna do
Bask in our cosmic insignificance
Soak up this blip we're livin' in
‘Cause nothing matters anyway
Isn't that great?
