Everything You’ve Ever Learned

Everything You’ve Ever Learned

Jack White

This song is a call to action to destroy the internet and information itself.

The Title “Everything You’ve ever learned” puts into perspective the futility and frustration of learning something already discovered and documented. Modern man has all information at their fingertips, “The one who is prepared is never surprised”.

This culminates into the last lines, as the narrator decides to renew discovery by burning knowledge with its first tool. “Do you want to start a fire? Well, you can watch it burn. Do you wanna learn? Then shut up and learn”
