In “Douchebag” Mat Musto is talking about an affair with a girl and how she should leave her current boyfriend and run away with him. He repeatedly refers to her lover as a “douchebag.”
[Verse 1]
It started out, I'd say, 'bout three months ago
I could have easily put a stop to this and let you go
But I'm not trying to break the heart or even wreck the home
Problem is every time we're making love
Your man's blowin' up the phone, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
If he doesn't know by now that we're messin' around
Then he might be as clueless as you make him sound, yeah
[Chorus]
We can't keep creepin' around like this
No, we can't keep it a secret
I know your man's gonna find out
(Sooner or later)
I'll have to roll up my sleeves and duke it out
Come on now
How about you leave that douchebag (Hey)
And be with me, girl?
Leave that douchebag (Hey)
And be with me, girl
(Sooner or later)
I'll have to go to his house and knock him out
Come on now
[Verse 2]
You're on the same family plan
Nationwide calls and texts in your hand
And you can't leave him now
You even got a closet full of shoes at his house
And I know, yeah
Why would you say that it's over?
He even hands over the keys to the Rover
Every time that you come over
I'm thinking, "Why can't you see
You need to pack up all of your things
And run away with me?"
[Pre-Chorus]
If he doesn't know by now that we're messin' around
Then he might be as clueless as you make him sound, yeah
[Chorus]
We can't keep creepin' around like this
No, we can't keep it a secret
I know your man's gonna find out
(Sooner or later)
I'll have to roll up my sleeves and duke it out
Come on now
How about you leave that douchebag (Hey)
And be with me, girl?
Leave that douchebag (Hey)
And be with me, girl
(Sooner or later)
I'll have to go to his house and knock him out
Come on now
[Bridge]
Why can't ya just leave that douchebag and be with me, girl?
Leave that douchebag and be with me, girl
Leave that douchebag and be with me, girl
Leave that douchebag and be with me, girl
[Chorus]
We can't keep creepin' around like this
No, we can't keep it a secret
I know your man's gonna find out
(Sooner or later)
I'll have to roll up my sleeves and duke it out
Come on now
How about you leave that douchebag (Hey)
And be with me, girl?
Leave that douchebag (Hey)
And be with me, girl
(Sooner or later)
I'll have to go to his house and knock him out
Come on now
