Lisp object code versus that of other languages



I've recently gone from Lisp (back) to assembly language to do some
'fun' stuff I haven't done in a long time. I've been looking at a few
samples of Lisp object code (disassemble in sbcl) and found some pretty
cryptic code.

Is it true to say that Lisp produces more complex and/or cryptic code
than, say, C/C++ and other languages that can compile direct to ML?
