Nice Guy
Nice Guys Finish Last: Embracing the Dark Side in Love's Game
Lyrics
I'm gonna stop usin' my manners
I plan to stop being polite and considerate.
Gonna start sendin' mean tweets
I will begin posting negative messages on social media.
Gonna start actin' as if I'm God's gift
I'll start behaving as if I'm exceptionally valuable to everyone.
To everybody I meet
Considering myself as a gift to everyone I meet.
I'm gonna stop kissin' on one girl
I'll stop being loyal to one girl and explore relationships with multiple women.
Mess around with a few
Engaging in casual relationships with different people.
Put a bumper sticker on my Bentley says evidently
Displaying arrogance with a bumper sticker suggesting Jesus favors me more than others.
Jesus loves me a lot more than you, yeah
Asserting that Jesus loves me more than others.
It don't pay to be a nice guy in a bad guy world
Being nice doesn't yield benefits in a world favoring those with a tough attitude.
It don't pay to be a nice guy when the bad guy always gets the girl
Kindness doesn't bring success when the antagonist always wins the affections of the girl.
You gotta be an A-hole if you wanna bank roll, maybe that's why I'm poor
Suggesting that being rude is necessary for financial success, possibly explaining the speaker's poverty.
What can I say? It just don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
Expressing that being nice no longer pays off.
Oh, what can I say? It just don't pay to be a nice guy anymore
Reiterating that being nice doesn't lead to positive outcomes.
I'm gonna do my best to get arrested
Intending to engage in activities leading to arrest, like taking a drunk mug shot.
Yeah, take a drunk mug shot
Specifically planning to have a mug shot taken while intoxicated.
When I go out clubbin'
When going out to clubs, purposefully parking in handicap spots.
Gonna roll these hubs right up in that handicap spot
Disregarding rules and inconveniencing others.
Yeah, I'm gonna fill a bunch of Youtubes up
Seeking attention by creating controversial content for YouTube.
Doing somethin' obscene
Performing offensive acts to gain notoriety.
Do whatever it takes to get my irritatin' face
Doing whatever it takes to have a bothersome image featured on a Hollywood magazine cover.
On the cover of a Hollywood magazine, yeah
Expressing a desire for fame even if achieved through irritation.
It don't pay to be a nice guy in a bad guy world
Reiterating that being nice is not rewarded in a world that favors tough behavior.
It don't pay to be a nice guy when the bad guy always gets the girl
