The song "Watch More Porn" by Hovey Benjamin explores the theme of failed resolutions and setting unrealistic goals. The lyrics express the narrator's humorous and exaggerated desire to consume more pornography as a way to distract themselves from life's difficulties. The song starts by acknowledging the tradition of making resolutions at the beginning of a new year but admits that the narrator's resolutions always end up failing. They then humorously express their intention to watch more porn, even going so far as to put a padlock on their bedroom door to prioritize consuming pornography over any potential physical relationships. The lyrics further emphasize the narrator's dedication to their chosen activity, mentioning the necessary supplies like tissues and lotion. They also mention how this obsession with porn provides a distraction, removing any stress or election-related concerns from their life. The narrative continues by addressing the contrast between attempting to improve one's life in the past and the current feeling of emptiness. The narrator reveals that occupying their mind with porn fills the void within, as long as it doesn't involve specific camera angles that they find unappealing. The lyrics touch on various preferences and dislikes about porn, including disliking a particular angle and being uncomfortable with extreme close-ups. However, their overall obsession with porn appears to override any concerns. Towards the end of the song, the narrator embodies a sense of giving up on life and disregards what other people may think of their pornography consumption. They openly admit they won't use private browsing or clear their browser history, indicating a lack of concern for privacy or potential judgment. While the song presents a humorous take on the topic, it advises listeners to consider the potential negative effects of excessive pornography consumption on mental health and relationships. The final lyrics suggest that reducing porn consumption might lead to improved overall well-being.
