“Join the Club” explores societal expectations of what a person should be: happy, healthy, pretty, wealthy, and funny. Hockey Dad refutes societies unrealistic expectations, asserting that it’s impossible to be perfect, so instead stay true to yourself.
[Verse 1]
There comes a time within your life when you would do
Absolutely anything they ask from you
Pop the collar, spend a dollar, wear those boots
You get a rough idea of what they want from you
[Chorus]
You better be happy
You better be healthy
You better be pretty
You better be skinny
You better have money
You better be funny
It's not too hard
To join the club
[Verse 2]
They say things like 'We don't care, we want everyone'
I saw the crowd of people gather in a club
Spend the dollar to become one of us
If you could spend your life away unless you got
[Chorus]
You better be happy
You better be healthy
You better be pretty
You better be skinny
You better have money
You better be funny
It's not too hard
To join the club
[Chorus]
You better be happy
You better be healthy
You better be pretty
You better be skinny
You better have money
You better be funny
It's not too hard
To join the club
[Outro]
It's just too hard
To join the club
It costs too much
To join the club
It's just too hard
To join the club
It costs too much
To join the club
