[Verse 1]
Know what to do to make it start
Know what to do to make it end
And if I fall apart
It's when I'm only human
[Pre-Chorus]
I know that it's trouble, I know that it's dumb
But it might be hot, and it might be fun
Know it in my heart, feel it in my gut about you
[Chorus]
I hate being right
I hate being right
I, I know exactly what this is
I'm a fatal optimist
[Verse 2]
Forget I've ever been hurt
Forget the reasons why
Forget that I'm on Earth
When I start looking at the sky
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm feeling something coming up
I'm a different person
Don't know who that was
Know it in my heart, feel it in my gut about you
[Chorus]
I hate being right
I hate being right
I, I know exactly what this is
I'm a fatal optimist
[Post-Chorus]
I know exactly what this is
I know exactly what this is
I know exactly what this is
[Outro]
Every single time, every single time
I hate being right
Every single time, I hate it, being right
I hate it
Oh, I hate it
I hate being right
I hate being right
