Watsky - Hey, Asshole Lyrics
Hey, asshole
See the sun is shining
But you are not smiling
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
I'm an asshole
Cause the sun is shining
But I am not smiling
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
I know I'm often told
That there's a pot of gold
I know I should be grateful
I know I'm good and able
But I don't have the strength to get up from the kitchen table
This kind of shot comes once
Another opportunity of a lifetime just slipped away
And that's the fifth this month
But when you take a punch
Don't you ever forget
Why you get up and you put one foot in front of the next
Got the power of my will
I don't wanna win a mil
But I'm looking at window sill
Gotta take a bitter pill
Gonna pay for what I did to my head and my heart'll foot the bill
Got a foot in my mouth and because I'm kicking myself I developed
A habit of knocking out my front tooth
Looking uncouth
Want to hear the truth
Give it to me straight
151 proof
Telling myself it'll happen when I'm happy
But I'm climbing up a ladder that has got no end
Hung up on a rung I'll never make it to the top
I'm looking at the bottom and I must descend
All I want to do is buck this trend
Everybody need a buck to spend
And I'll be working on myself, til I work on someone else
Til I get there Ima just pretend
I know I'm often told
That there's a pot of gold
But I don't see no fucking rainbow and my coffee's cold
I know I should be grateful
I know I'm good and able
But I don't have the strength to get up from the kitchen table
This kind of shot comes once
Another opportunity of a lifetime just slipped away
And that's the fifth this month
But when you take a punch
Don't you ever forget
Why you get up and you put one foot in front of the next
Hey, asshole
See the sun is shining
But you are not smiling
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
I'm an asshole
Cause the sun is shining
But I am not smiling
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
When I'm in a crisis
In a moment of silence
I look under my eyelids
And I'm checking my mileage
I been using a pool of water as a mirror but not for style it's
So I can reach in and pimpslap my reflection for acting childish
Spent a half an hour sitting at the bottom of my shower
Lettin the water run over my body and dammit I wanted to get up
But I didn't have the power
I don't have the answers anyway yay (yay yay yay)
Don't want to panic but I gotta come clean
Because the plan of the planet is just mean
Knew it was tough, but dammit it's obscene
I've been huffing and puffing up to the top of the summit
And I'ma rough it if I have enough steam
I'll keep on coming and coming until I'm coming with the stamina of a salmon
Who's heading upstream (nah nah nah nah nah)
Hey, asshole
See the sun is shining
But you are not smiling
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
I'm an asshole
Cause the sun is shining
But I am not smiling
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
And I don't know why

thanks to youtube for putting this 💝 in my

Face your fears. Get up and look outside. Than, look inside. Search for YOUR colors. They're there hidden somewhere. Fight for it. Your world will start to make sense and be colored again. And don't ever forget: THERE ALWAYS WILL EXIST SOMEONE TO LOVE YOU, NO MATTER WHAT.
Spread love and it will return to you.
Crazy to think that in 2019 at the age of 21 this song still connects to me just as much as when I first heard it at the age of 14... almost brought a tear to my eye 😅 WE LOVE YOU WATSKY! 🙌
I know I'm often told
That there's a pot of gold
But I don't see no fucking rainbow and my coffee's cold
I know I should be grateful
I know I'm good and able
But I don't have the strength to get up from the kitchen table
This kind of shot comes once
Another opportunity of a lifetime just slipped away
And that's the fifth this month
This is the first rapper that made me cry. Goddamit George Watsky.
Watsky is so cute, I want to cuddle with him
Still listen every day....2019!!!
Watsky, I experience severe depression pretty much everyday, and sometimes it feels so hard to keep moving forward... when things get really bad, I put this song on and it helps, it helps a lot. Thank you, sincerely.
This song is such a depression vibe and I'm here for it.
Came Here From Watching Kristen Bell & Jaime Foxx Playing Bet Your Daughter On Ellen. She Named Him As A Rapper & Everyone Said Who😁.
Attempted suicide twice a little a month ago; heroin, was resuscitated with narcan, hospital both times...sober now almost a month, and up from the kitchen table right now, putting one foot in front of the other every day..
Glad You're Still Here.
Why aren’t you famous yet? Been listening for years!
Why was this removed from spotify
Watsky is the best, his music is perfect for anything to me.
Black people fucked-up white peoples heads by making them think that 'rapping' is an acceptable form of noise pollution on my Earth. Yes. Mine. Now leave. Thanks. 😎
HoldMyBalls4Me Weak bait from a weak bitch
Still love this song.
great video.. love makes everything beautiful.. even those little darker days.. because after every night..
Such a happy instrumental for such a powerful song! Holy moley! 😱
@Watsky
I'm no big social media follow. I abosolute love your music, poems, and freestyles. My first concert was your 2018 ABQ Sunshine theatere. WELCOME TO THE FAMILY !. Got my Signatures FTB (Feed the Biirds). Come back hopeful hopeful hopeful!!! You were my fist concert homie!! Always remember! @Camilla Recchio and @kushmody😉
Okay, can I just say how phenomenal the use of color is in this video? I especially loved 02:31 where he's sitting in the shower and the color just starts popping in on the curtain and then the bottles. Then they saved that last bottle so it could pop in at 2:52. And they could have gone hyper saturated with the color like you often see paired with black and white but they chose to keep them somewhat muted so it fit with the song's mood better. Bringing it to full color at the end let the video end on a hopeful note, too. Fucking beautifully shot and edited.
I feel better right now, tyank u
@2:31 the *p-yaw* is the best
The first year I watched this I never noticed the colors slowly coming back, and now it's my favorite thing that keeps me coming back.
Holyyyyy fucking throwback
Every comment has between 2 and 5 years old...
Actually, the “another opportunity of a lifetime just slipped away and that’s the fifth this month” line is accidentally uplifting to me because if it’s the fifth one just this month, that means that even if that particularly ‘opportunity of a lifetime’ slipped away this time, there will be more. Because there will always be new things you can come across and bring into your life and make something out of, you know?
Swear to god he wrote this for me
This song is a miracle !
It really is. It got me through a lot man 💯
Man what happened to George watsky
He just dropped an album a few months ago ?
Dreadhead Sedd I mean his YouTube
I freaking LOVE this vid.
3:27 hey! I’ve done that
I Love you song
Once in a while I just come back. Soothes my soul. And I don't know why, and I don't know why, and I don't know why...
To EveryOne Who left a comment..Thumbs Up! I Am An AssHole! Suns shining!
Throw back
I think that I might get myself up..nah
This was a classic song for me, I feel this.
VERY classic . 7 years later 💯
This has been out for 6 years!?! I'm just hearing this?! Wow!
You should also listen to Wounded Healer, Strong As An OAK, Dedicated to Christina Li, Right Now, Sloppy Seconds, and Grass Is Greener... dude literally has TOO much good music
@Sedd B. I know now. Since that day I listen to his whole catalog all the time. In a month I became a huge fan.
I generally like watsky but this song is bitch .... white men have had induced suicides from media propaganda since Obama. And there isn't much safe music. Anger . Hostility towards the opposition. And every slave is an asshole, every suppressed voice is a troll. But IQ is still a thermal adaption. Dumb fucking whores
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
damn she is pretty
Why does this make me feel like I wanna/should cry
I have that rug. Got it at K-Mart.
Time to get off my ass and spread the cult
I usually stream this on Spotify or whatever, but it’s not working currently so I come here to YouTube. This art was posted on my 12th birthday
Seeing this live At Tampa Florida changed my my life
reeeeeeeeeeeeee
the eyebrow raise at 2:16
Who's bumping this in 2019???
My GF showed me Kate Nash when we met and I showed her Watsky. Kate Nash broke my heart with her music and my gf fell in love with Watsky. After multiple listens/watches I realize.. “Holy eff, that’s Kate Nash?!” Like I was George and she was Kate or something.. adorable, huh?
Give it to me straight 151 proof. ❤️
HEY ASSHOLE! QUIT BEING EDGY IN MY CHRISTIAN HOUSEHOLD!
This deserves more views.
When you take a punch, don't you ever forget, why you get up and you put one foot in front of the next.
Motivational poster material right here. Actually made one and put it up in my office when I was going through a rough patch in my life.
see you in pittsburgh watsky 😅
hope it’s not sold out
Anthem to my life
My fucking freshman year 😭
I connect to this song in a way that seems unreal. It explains my everyday emotions. Its the only song I can handle listening to the lyrics fully anymore.
The eyebrow wiggling and smiling and laughing at the end makes it so hard not to laugh. It's contagious.
Yea a**holes be happy and greatful
This song still helps me through so much shit. Major respect xx
Seems like it was just yesterday this song came out
I also knock on my front tooth is that really a thing
This is so good. I just love it 😆😅
Thanks m8, your stuff is like the soundtrack of my life. Keep it up.
Lol Love the end
Who is listening in 2018 😂😂
looks so good clean shavin
weirdest last 15 seconds of this song EVER
The first song I ever heard from Watsky a friend showed me it saying it reminded him of me. Seen you live twice now and I love almost everything you've done Keep it up George <3
wooooooow i just soooooo adore them together on this vid and i don't know why
One of my favorite songs. Watsky is the best!
When you have a song you only listen to at a very low low and you listen to it when you're normal and it feels so weird
I can't handle this feeling, fuck
man you should be on the radoi dude!
Oh fuck how have I only just seen this now 🔥♥️
Them being a bit goofy in the end is kinda soothing
I loves this album. Pretty much every song has a catchy hook that get's stuck in your head. They are somehow goofy and deep all at the same time.
I drink urine
Somebody I will never forget introduces me to this song when I listen to it. I feel pain and at the same time a reminder that there is another day and you never know when you might come across something else so amazing nothing else no longer matters you can change the person you become but you can never change the mistakes you have made
My little brother died as a marine he was 3 weeks till his 21 birthday he was gonna come home and we were gonna get so fucked up but even a marine whos never to see a day of battle can die in a car crash in seconds without songs like this to remind me why i should get back up and keep going Id be lost thanks guys this song is perfect (especially since ASSHOLE is my personal nickname most people are scared to call me one but i know who i am)
APE GANG

I felt so unhappy going into this music video today, but then the eyebrow raises at the end and the smiling made me chuckle and I couldn't help but smile back at it.
i cry every time i listen to this song. thanks george.
Still my favorite.
If Eminem is a rap God then Watsky is the rap Saviour
Love you Xavier... Miss you bro :(
Its been quite some time since the songs been released, and honestly this song never hit me like other songs did on the album, but coming back now, i can say ive been in the same place, getting pissed at myself for not knowing why im not happy, so that just adds to the many reasons to appreciate this masterpiece, thank you.
Appreciate yourself
An amazing friend introduced me to Watsky. And I used to tease him about Watsky being Eminem. It was a silly joke because I'm a goth punk girl. I miss him. I don't know why he stopped smiling, but I know I haven't been since he went away. You're always loved Traj.
yall sampled Carmack!!!!!!! Carmack and Watsky are 2 of my favorite artists in the world so its so fucking dope that Watsky likes Carmack!!
