Lyrics
You go to bat for all your friends
And they, just look out for them
And when you treat a girl just right
She says, "Lets be friends, you’re way too nice."
They say be a nice guy
As they walk all over you
But that gets you nowhere, so sometimes
You gotta be an asshole
You gotta be an asshole
Know you don’t wanna be an asshole
You gotta be an asshole
You’re working harder to get by
But she got the raise because she lied
And he left despite the love you gave
The truth is he’s just looking to get laid
They say be a good girl
As they walk all over you
But that gets you nowhere, so sometimes
You gotta be an asshole
You gotta be an asshole
Know you don’t wanna be an asshole
You gotta be an asshole
Is it that there’s no one to trust?
Are we all only out for us?
Can we just stop this selfishness?
Sorry sadly,
You gotta be an asshole
You gotta be an asshole
Know you don’t wanna be an asshole
You gotta be an asshole
