It's Easy To Be Worst
Jess Origliasso feat. Nina May Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I needed to see, just needed to see
If I'd be sorry
Like I wanted to be
I'm hating to be the guilty party
The one on my knees
I never wanted to be

But I'm not gonna tell him anything
No, I'm not gonna tell him anything at all

Who knows? I'm well-rehearsed
I'll keep it up just to come first
It's easy to be worst
And I'm not gonna tell him anything at all

You know it's easy to see
You always get yourself in the worst scenarios
Never know where to go
How to keep it in tow
Any chance it comes out, you follow your doubts
Until you figure it out
And then you scream and you shout

Should I turn my back on this?
Is it wrong not to confess?
All I keep coming up with is this
Should I turn my back on this?
Is it wrong not to confess?
All I keep coming up with is this

But I'm not gonna tell him anything
No, I'm not gonna tell him anything at all

Who knows? I'm well-rehearsed
And I'll keep it up just to come first
It's easy to be worst
And I'm not gonna tell him anything at all

(I'm not, I'm not) I'm not gonna tell him anything
('Cause what he doesn't know won't hurt him, what he doesn't know won't hurt him at all) No I'm not gonna tell him anything at all
(I'm not, I'm not) Who knows? I'm well-rehearsed, and I'll keep it up just to come first
('Cause what he doesn't know won't hurt him, what he doesn't know won't hurt him at all) It's easy to be worst, and I'm not gonna tell him anything at all

(I'm not, I'm not) I'm not gonna tell him anything
('Cause what he doesn't know won't hurt him, what he doesn't know won't hurt him at all) No I'm not gonna tell him anything at all
(I'm not, I'm not) Who knows? I'm well-rehearsed, and I'll keep it up just to come first
('Cause what he doesn't know won't hurt him, what he doesn't know won't hurt him at all) It's easy to be worst, and I'm not gonna tell him anything at all





What he doesn't know won't hurt him at all
And I'm not gonna tell him

Overall Meaning

The song It's Easy To Be Worst by Jess Origliasso feat. Nina May speaks about deception and guilt in a relationship. The singer is dealing with her own inner conflict about whether or not to confess her wrongdoing to her partner, while also acknowledging the ease of being the worst version of herself. She is hating to be the guilty party and is on her knees, but she doesn't want to tell him anything at all. She knows that what he doesn't know won't hurt him, and she would rather keep her secret than face the consequences of her actions.


The chorus repeats the phrase "Who knows? I'm well-rehearsed, and I'll keep it up just to come first. It's easy to be worst, and I'm not gonna tell him anything at all." This implies that the singer is used to being deceitful and that she knows how to play the game to get what she wants. The line "It's easy to be worst" suggests that it is easier to give in to our worst impulses and engage in hurtful behavior than it is to do the right thing and be honest.


Overall, the song explores the themes of deception and guilt in relationships, the struggle between doing what is right and what is easy, and the consequences of our actions.
