📜 Lyrics
I was evil
I was cruel
I did thing that on reflection were not cool
I was mean
I was sadistic
But I saved your life, now ain't that inconsistent
Manipulated, and I lied
Took advantage of a girl who's mom had died
Wrecked your career, Chuck
Destroyed your home
But with one move I'm the hero of this show
Beetlejuice (company)
Oh ain't it strange (yes it's strange, yes it's strange)
When an asshole saves the day(when an asshole saves the day)
I gave you all a golden shower
And then at the final hour
I did something noble
Boy have I got range
Oh ain't it wild
I mean, come on guys I got hitched to a child
I was such a bottom dweller
But with just one act of valor
I made every gal and fella shout "hurray"
Ain't it strange(Ain't it strange)
Goes to show that folks can really change
Oh. ain't it strange
When an asshole saves the day
(Lydia)
Asshole
(Adam)
Wow, but you were sleazy
(Beetlejuice)
Okay
(Adam)
You were rude
(Beetlejuice)
Alright
(Barbara)
You barged in on me one time when i was nude
(Beetlejuice)
Yes i did
(Adam and Barbara)
You're a bully
(Delia)
Use disgusting words
(Charles)
Reduced this house's value by two-thirds
But i was selfish
(Beetlejuice)
Yes
(Charles)
I was a slight bore
(Beetlejuice)
Slight?
(All)
I guess you gave us something all to fight for
(Beetlejuice)
Right?
(Charles)
It Doesn't fit with the established narative
(All)
But you're the reason we all get to live
It's a surprise
(Beetlejuice)
Surprise
(All)
When you owe your life to someone you despise
(Beetlejuice)
To someone you despise
(All)(Beetlejuice)
He's a sociopathic threat
And he's the worstest guy we've met
And yet right at the end i guess this guy is nice
(How to react)
When a leopard changes spots and got your back?
(I got your back, I got your back)
He was totally the worst
And then you think you know a person
Then they're cursed
And reverse their evil ways
Ain't it strange
(I mean come on guys, i'm totally insane)
Oh yes it's strange, when an asshole saves the day
ASSHOLE!
(Beetlejuice)
This is great
We are sharing
And we are caring
And we are learning
And that's a good thing
Now anyone else want to get something off their chest?
Okay then Charles you're next
(Charles)
Okay okay i need to say when my wife passed away
I behaved in a way that wasn't great
And threw myself into real estate
I thought that by ignoring pain
It would simply go away
I am here to say, i was an asshole
(All)
You were an asshole
(Bettlejuice)
Great, okay
Anyone else wanna have their say?
(Delia)
I am not a life coach, clearly
I signed up because i was dearly
Madly, deeply and completely
In love with charles Deetz
(All)
No
(Delia)
I've never been able to find my chi
Jesus what is wrong with me
I was blind but now i see
That i was an asshole
(All)
You were an asshole
(Adam and Barbara)
We would always hesitate
Procrastinate
We used to wait
We were afraid to be pushed away
Do we have to say it?
(All)
You were assholes
(Lydia)
I was angry, shut you out
Anyone nice i closed them down
I pushed everyone away
I was a-
(All)
No, you're a teenager!
(All arguing)
(I was an asshole, you were an asshole
I was an asshole, you were an asshole
They were an asshole
No, I'm an asshole)
(All)
Oh ain't it strange (ain't it strange, ain't it strange)
We're all assholes in some way (we're all assholes in some way)
You can wander around forever
Thinking you're so god damn clever
If you never see the truth
You'll never change
I guess this means
(I guess this means)
That however hard you suck you can be redeemed
When a person you revile
Comes to save you with a smile
It's hard to know just where to file it in your brain
Ain't in strange (Oh when you can
Not blame the one you'd like to hate)
Guess it makes a change
Ain't it strange
When an asshole saves the day
When an A-S-S-H-O-L-E
Turns out to be better than you thought they'd be
It's strange
But in the darkest moments, hope survives
Cause an A grade idiot saved our lives
No mater what they say
(Beetlejuice)
An asshole can save the day
All (Beetlejuice)
No matter what they tell ya
You can save the day(I saved the day)
Right at the final moment
An asshole paved the way
That's the truth
He's the living proof
Beetlejuice
(Yes)
Beetlejuice
(Yes
Oh come on, god damn it one more time)
BEETLEJUICE!
