Everyone Else is an Asshole
Reel Big Fish Lyrics

I tried to be nice
I attempted to be polite and respectful towards others

I tried to live my life
I strived to live my own life the way I wanted to

But everyone else is an asshole
But unfortunately, other people are rude and inconsiderate

I tried to forgive
I made an effort to let go of grudges and resentments

I tried to live and let live
I attempted to allow others to live their lives without interference

And everybody else thinks of no one but themselves
And it seems that everyone else is selfish and only cares about their own interests

And no one wants to help cause they're all assholes
And others are unwilling to help because they are unpleasant and nasty

And every friendly chat is a knife in the back
And every conversation that appears amicable is actually a betrayal waiting to happen

A sneaky attack waiting to happen
A deceitful assault that is imminent

I tried not to mind
I made an attempt to ignore negative behavior and avoid becoming upset

I tried to be so kind
I put effort into being compassionate towards others

But they won't stop me now
However, their actions will not deter me from achieving my goals

Cause they're all assholes
Because they are unpleasant individuals

And they're planning while I sleep
And while I am asleep, they are scheming

And even as we speak
At this very moment

To strike when I am weak
To take advantage of my vulnerabilities

Everyone else
All other individuals

It's time to defend
It is necessary for me to protect myself

I didn't know I have no friends
I was not aware that I had no true companions

I've got to get them first
I must be the one to act first

Cause worst has come to worst
Because situations have escalated to the point of no return

But they put the blame on me
However, they attribute the fault to me

Pretending not to see
Acting as though they are unaware of what is happening

That I just want to be free
Despite the fact that I desire freedom

From these assholes
From these unpleasant individuals

But I couldn't take their shit
But I was unable to tolerate their negative behavior

So I tried to deal with it
Therefore, I endeavored to manage the situation

And now I look a bit like an asshole!
And now, as a result of my actions, I resemble an unpleasant person

I tried to overlook
I made an attempt to ignore the negative behavior of others

And I tried to close the book
And I attempted to put an end to the situation

But I just couldn't help it
However, I was unable to control myself

They called it a song
They referred to this as a musical composition

But it really wasn't my fault
However, it was not my fault

You're an asshole too!
You are also an unpleasant person

I'm talking bout you
I am referring to you

And you, and you
And also to you and you

It's time to defend
It is necessary for me to protect myself

Everyone else is an asshole
All other individuals are unpleasant people
