Lyrics
Right now you are down and out And feeling really crappy I'll say And when I see how sad you are It sort of makes me happy (happy?) Sorry Nicky, human nature Nothing I can do It's schadenfreude Making me feel glad that I'm not you Well, that's not very nice Gary I didn't say it was nice But everybody does it D'ya ever clap when a waitress falls And drops a tray of glasses (yeah) And ain't it fun to watch figure skaters Fallin' on their asses (sure) Don't ya feel all warm and cozy Watchin' people out in the rain That's schadenfreude People taking pleasure in yo' pain Schadenfreude? What's that, some kinda Nazi word Yup! It's German for 'Happiness at the misfortune of others' 'Happiness at the misfortune of others' That is German Watching a vegetarian Being told she just ate chicken Or watching a frat boy realise Just what he put his dick in Being on an elevator when somebody shouts 'Hold the door' No Schadenfreude Fuck you lady that's what stairs are for Ooh, how about Straight a student getting b's Exes getting STD's Waking doormen from their naps Watching tourists reading maps Football players getting tackled CEO's getting shackled Watching actors never reach The ending of their Oscar speech Schadenfreude Schadenfreude Schadenfreude Schadenfreude The world needs people like you and me Who've been knocked around by fate 'Cause when people see us They don't wanna be us And that makes them feel great We provide a vital service to society You and me Schadenfreude Making the world a better place Making the world a better place Making the world a better place to be S C H A D E N F R E U D E
