Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Cast - Real Life Fighting Is Awkward Lyrics






Ooohhhooo, ooohhhooo

Real life fighting is awkward
It's not like movie fighting
Testosterone is rising
But you're really just grappling and writhing

Oh, real life fighting is awkward
There are no cool sound effects
Punching doesn't sound like anything
You often hurt yourself
More than you hurt the other guy

Real life fighting is awkward, yeah
Even if you know karate
You have to both agree to use karate
It can't just be one guy using karate
You gotta' have some ground rules

Aoohhhooo, aoohhhooo

It's not like theater fighting
It's not graceful
There's not a lot of leaping
You don't have to presence of mind to leap
And there's no choreographer
Keeping things from looking awkward

Again, real life fighting is awkward
It's not like sci-fi fighting
You can't stop time momentarily
There are no futuristic weapons

And, even if you had a real weapon
You'd be freaked out by the weapon
A weapon makes everything too real

Back to that clumsy, awkward fighting!

    "you gotta have some ground rules"

  2. R.... P....

    Movie fights: *BLAM* *KAPOW* *BOOM*
    Real life fights: *slap* oweeee don’t!

  3. M.... M....

    [Bridget Jones fight scenes have joined the chat]

  4. d.... ....

    Crazy Ex Girlfriend has made me laugh out loud plenty of times, but this moment made me straight up CACKLE the whole way through

  5. W.... ....

    Challenge: Josh vs. Greg
    Winner: Nathaniel

  6. r.... m....

    josh's faces lmaooooo

  7. F.... P....

    "The opposite of love isn't hate, it's indifference. You guys fought because you care about each other." ❤️

  8. M.... U....

    Who is singing?

  9. S.... ....

    lol So funny XD

  10. D.... S....

    Looking back its a far cry from when Josh one punches Nathaniel earlier in the season and he falls to the floor. Greg is a lot less buff then Nathaniel so either Josh was going easy on Greg or they definitely played this for laughs. Eaither way great music video da best

    D.... S....

    I also think it has to do with what Josh said about his teacher forbidding him from fighting outside of class; when he punched Nathaniel it was because he had just found out Nathaniel tried to kill his grandpa and get his father deported, so he was furious. I don't think he was furious with Greg, jus really upset with a friend, hence the hesitation in actually really fighting him (sorry for the big text lol)

  11. L.... N....

    I just show this these two guys, who fighting because they're both got a crush on me.

  12. C.... M....

    Sad that this song, Weird Al's "There's no Bathroom", and the Itchy Vagina Metaphor songs weren't included on the season 4 soundtrack :(

  13. J.... P....

    I forgot all about this since it’s not on the soundtrack lol I love this

  14. B.... M....

    How Greg hurted hisself more and just touched Josh because!

  15. m.... ....

    I'm kinda sad she said "Have a good show" because now my headcanon that the whole thing was a real conversation is ruined

  16. l.... ....

    I watched Bridget Jones yesterday and I want to set the Daniel/Mark fight scene to this song DESPERATELY

  17. C.... A....

    It can't be just one guy using Karate

  18. M.... K....

    This is gold.

  19. S.... R....

    why is this not on spotify???

  20. S.... M....

    *FIGHT FOR THE LITTLE COUGH BOY!!*

  21. s.... b....

    *(flashes out small knife)*

  22. o.... ....

    Whenever I see anyone get into a fight on the street these days (around bars and such) I immediately think of this video and start laughing. Can't take it seriously anymore.

    o.... ....

    In most cases, it's not even awkward, just stupid.

  23. R.... B....

    Who is the singer???

  24. i.... ....

    "TAKE IT EASY...WOW."

  25. j.... ....

    A weapon makes everything too rEeEaAaALLLL

  26. U.... F....

    They had the actual choreographer in the video. :D I love this show!

  27. M.... C....

    Oh! One of the best song of the show! I laughed sooo hard! Thanks :)

  28. p.... ....

    SHE SHOULD HAVE ENDED UP WITH NATHANIEL
    UNPOPULAR OPINION I'LL DIE MAD ABOUT IT

  29. �.... ....

    This song reminds me "kungfu fighting"
    I love this song lol

  30. T.... S....

    Have a good show! ❤️

  31. M.... W....

    nathaniel just being there makes it even funnier

  32. W.... J....

    The ear hit, the tickles, and the real weapon cracked me so hard

  33. K.... E....

    This is the funniest song in the whole show.

  34. V.... Y....

    Is the parody for "Everybody is Kungfu Fighting" from Kungfu Panda?

  35. B.... S....

    This is truly the funniest song and video in all of Crazy Ex Girlfriend (next to You Ruined Everything) The scalpel part alone had me cackling and crying tears of laughter. It’s hilarious.

  36. J.... S....

    Greg’s face with the scalpel is so relatable

  37. E.... G....

    “You don’t have the presence of mind to leap” Love this show

    E.... G....

    Best line lmaooooo

  38. R.... Y....

    This is one of my favorite songs from all seasons! It's so funny and well done!

  39. Y.... ....

    This is true

  40. C.... ....

    this is a masterpiece 😂😂👏🏻👏🏻

  41. T.... o....

    This reminded me of those iconic Bridget Jones's Diary fights. Classic!

  42. o.... ....

    1:03 Josh was so hot here ❤️

  43. E.... G....

    Ohhhh I sooo wish I could have watched this with Santino Fontana!!! :(

  44. A.... N....

    who is the vocalist on this song?? it sounds like the actor who plays Jim !

    A.... N....

    His name is Chester Gregory. On his Twitter you can see Rachel acknowledging him and him thanking her. (He really should have had a credit at the end of the episode -- and on this video.)

  45. B.... ....

    As someone who saw two guys fight over a girl, this is hilariously close to the truth!

  46. D.... F....

    "I'm really just a singer who moves" I've literally died

  47. D.... U....

    Nathaniel is so relatable here sjdka i love him sm

  48. s.... ....

    Most bar fights are people falling over after a wild swing and miss and awkward rolling around.

  49. p.... ....

    2:34 "wow" where did Owen Wilson come from

  50. E.... M....

    One of the greatest moments of my life right here haha, nearly died laughing

  51. B.... B....

    This. Is so hilarious. Sadly, I was in a few awkward fights earlier in my life. And yes, they are every bit as ridiculous. This captured it perfectly. My hats off to the guys for learning four ridiculous fights.

  52. L.... F....

    Why is this song not on spotify? :(((((

  53. J.... K....

    This was one of the greatest things I have ever witnessed in the show, quite possibly in my top 20 moments I have watched on media.
    I loved this entire episode, and the entire show.

  54. a.... h....

    Best scene/song of the episode!!! Thanks cough boy for the squirrel flu 🤣

  55. J.... ....

    This is everything I could want from a music video. Kung Fu Fighting parody, jokes about theatrical singer/movers, Nathaniel being the voice of reason for once, and, of course, Kathryn getting a featured role as herself! Not ready for this show to end!

  56. g.... ....

    after this episode i would die for a friendtopia reprise starring these three

    g.... ....

    Brotopia.

    g.... ....

    Romy a dystopia about our bromance!

    g.... ....

    Yes PLS

    g.... ....

    Omg yessssssss

  57. L.... K....

    kee-yuh

  58. M.... R....

    The West Side Story bit killed me. "Thank you, it's a dream role". 😂

  59. K.... S....

    When he pulled out the scalpel...everybody was like whoa..this shit just got too real😂😂

  60. L.... D....

    Me (an unsuspecting and innocent fan): "Crazy ex-Girlfriend songs are awesome because they're all such great singers"
    CEG (in a low, villain voice): "YOU FOOL, we are ALSO great dancers AND we are hilarious"
    Me (flying into the air as my voice gets gradually higher): "oh nooo, I did not expect such quality conteeeeeeeeeet"

  61. A.... R....

    Who is singing?

  62. L.... B....

    This is the reason people fight more in movies than in real life. But it's kinda more satisfying to fight in real life tho. Because after sharing such a fucking awkward experience you just have to bond over how bad and ridiculous it was.

  63. M.... ....

    Tag yourself I’m just a singer who moves 😂

  64. m.... n....

    this is only when men fight. girls fight with no remorse. you will not stop. 🤷🏽‍♀️

  65. R.... P....

    Nathaniel: Can I have a waffle? Can I *please* have a waffle?

    R.... P....

    PLEASE I CAN'T FIND IT

    R.... P....

    @milkteaaddict it's a reference to a vine, it's not actually in the video. lol

    R.... P....

    @Carolina Tamayo oh

    R.... P....

    Can we play dNd now?

    R.... P....

    Can I *get a waffle? Can I please *get a waffle?

  66. H.... S....

    Does Josh Chan practicing Taekwondo or karate?

    This Issue bugged me for the longest time , and it's irrelevant to the plot....

    Why Taekwondo?

    1. Josh Chan have Taekwondo Uniform (dobok).
    There is one problem with the suit tho... white v-neck when black belts should have black v-neck.
    Yes, like colorful belts its another way to waste money on fabric. different suits for the Black Belts.

    2. 'Angry Mad' clip - headband with the flag of South Korea.
    Taekwondo is from Korea, karate is from Japan.

    3. Techniques - In 'Real Life Fighting' and 'Angry Mad' , there is a tornado kick. It's TKD signature move.
    Yes there are a lot of random and funny moves, but definitely looks more like Taekwondo .

    Why Karate?

    1. Everyone refers to it as karate.
    For sure in the special drawer and the burning/trashing josh stuff, Rachel refers to it as karate gear.
    First I thought it was a joke.
    Personally no meter which martial arts I'm doing, if its involved a suit my friends and family call it Jodo (never trained in Jodo btw).
    I'm from Israel and since Jodo is basically the only sport we good at.... it common mistake.
    At the US maybe the popularity of 'Karate Kid' made every martial arts refers as karate .
    But ! in this episode Josh calls it karate and refers to a sensei ....

    Taekwndo and Karte :

    1. 'Trapped In A Car' - Before the song start, Josh talking with paula about the special table , therapy and.... martial arts!
    He is saying Taekwondo and Shotokan are not that different.
    Karate got few different styles , the major ones are shotokan (partial contact) and kyokushin (full contact).
    Then he count to 10 in Korean (anna,doul,set..) and in Japanese (each,knee,sun...).

    H.... S....

    Okay...cool

    H.... S....

    Just imagine Josh figuring out he's been doing Taekwondo instead of Karate his entire life.

  67. C.... E....

    Who sings this song? Sounds like Jim at points 😂

    C.... E....

    His name is Chester Gregory.

  68. F.... L....

    It's the awkward, sexy, clumsy KUNG FU fighting awkward song!!!

  69. S.... M....

    This is the first episode I’ve ever been attracted to Nathaniel... I’m shocked

  70. A.... C....

    This song was amazing and funny! Love my Natha-niel!

  71. M.... n....

    Fight for the little cough boy!!!

  72. L.... S....

    Who is singing?

    L.... S....

    Chester Geogry

  73. a.... a....

    1:04 -1:07 is the hottest shit ive ever scene. vincent is such a babe.

  74. G.... F....

    "You don't have the presence of mind to leap" fuck, this song is awesome

  75. k.... ....

    "Thank you, it's a dream role" gets me every time

    k.... ....

    Ikr. So beautiful.

  76. E.... M....

    Can someone tell me why they're fighting in a hospital?!?

    E.... M....

    @Gregory Dusmenil Spoiling is fine! I stopped watching the show but I try to keep up with what's happening through the songs and Wikipedia 😂

    E.... M....

    Edna Mode they’re fighting over Rebecca lol

    E.... M....

    They’re in quarantine

  77. S.... ....

    this show is just so much better than anything on tv ever

  78. J.... M....

    Does this remind anyone else of childhood fights with a sibling? 😂😂

  79. o.... ....

    This is hilarious and so so soooo true.

  80. M.... C....

    I love new Greg now 😂

  81. I.... ....

    Nathaniel in the background is a big, big mood

  82. I.... ....

    There are real, literal tears in my eyes. Thank you for this beautiful awkward moment.

  83. K.... _....

    I think my favorite thing about this is how Nathaniel is just kind of standing awkwardly in the background watching them make asses of themselves. Also, the horrified look on Greg's face when he pulls a scalpel on Josh. Would the old Greg have stopped there? I'm not sure.

    K.... _....

    I think the old Greg would have stopped there too. Even at his most messed up, Greg still cared about Josh and wouldn't want to seriously hurt him

  84. R.... B....

    Why is this actual footage of my and my brother fighting

    R.... B....

    your brothers are both handsome af

  85. a.... a....

    Nathaniel is so relatable here. He really wants this fight to stop but not enough to actually try to stop it himself

    a.... a....

    Josh really sucker-punched him that one time. I don't blame him for backing away.

  86. K.... R....

    No one else has seemed to pick up on that the first fight scene was Nathan Drake?
    Okay then, just me.

  87. A.... W....

    Kathryn Burns finally appeared on the show =))

    A.... W....

    She;s in S2 in hte post-credits when the dancers in Rebecca's had talk to her

  88. y.... d....

    THIS IS SO FUNNY OMG

  89. T.... R....

    “I’m more of a singer who moves” if this isn’t my whole life

  90. i.... ....

    This season has had so many awesome song omg this is hilarious and genius

  91. s.... d....

    Leave it to CEG to do a number inspired by Kung Fu Fighting that is hilarious AND advances the emotional arcs of the characters.

  92. V.... D....

    This is PERFECT!!!

  93. M.... C....

    I am constantly amazed at how perfectly this show apes the style and look of other genres, even for brief single scenes. The variety of skills it must require is astonishing.

  94. K.... B....

    At 0:55 and 1:15 Nathaniel looks like he is so done with them also look how much he's grown. I never thought I would see him as the voice of reason

  95. O.... ....

    Level headed Nathaniel has me like: 😯

  96. r.... ....

    Kathryn Burns!! <3

  97. A.... O....

    KATHRYN!!!!!!!!!!

  98. M.... ....

    1:05 - Daaaaaayuuuum!
