We’re Not Even Trying Lyrics by Something and the Whatevers

We Sold Our Souls for Wicked Lulz

2014

This is the part of the song where the lyrics are just starting and you’re really not sure what you think of them just yet
This is the part of the song that tells your girlfriend you love her in the words of drunk assholes you’ve never met
This is the part where the guitar comes in and you’re like “Oh, wow, repeated eighth notes, shit just got real!”
This is the part with the predictable beat drop, and here’s the part of the commercial where the car changes gears
(Na na nananana na na na na)
You don’t wanna sing along, but you can’t help it
(Na na nananana na na na na)
Endorphins in your brain keep you addicted to this bullshit
(Na na nananana na na na na)
You fucking hate this song, why are you dancing?
(Na na nananana na na na na)
We were going to write a good transition here, just use your imagination!
This is the part of the song where you secretly resent the fact that you have to wait 25 seconds to hear the good part again
This is the part where he quotes some famous novel and you’re like “these guys are smart, I bet they went to college”
This is the line you always get confused with the line from the other verse- God dammit, which one comes first again?
And this line is totally pointless because fuck you, our lyrics don’t have to be good or anything!!!
(Na na nananana na na na na)
You don’t wanna sing along, but you can’t help it
(Na na nananana na na na na)
Endorphins in your brain keep you addicted to this bullshit
(Na na nananana na na na na)
This is the same chorus as last time, why are you still listening?
(Na na nananana na na na na)
If you think you hate this song now, wait til you hear it for the thirty thousandth time
This is the part where the guitar solo starts
And this is the part where the guitar solo keeps going…
And it’s still going…
...Still going...
...Oh my god, it’s still not over...
And this is the part where the song abruptly ends
