Must you always be right is a song by LorD and Master that got finished five years after it was started. It's about a person who thinks they are more attractive than they really are, just because they have a nice car. The title came from a colleague at Dan's former office job, who said, "you should write a song called 'Must you always be right?'" rather snarkily.
Lyrics
You’re not as clever as you think you are You’re not as sexy as you think you look in your car It makes no difference, it’s not black-and-white Answer me this: must you always be right Driving your convertible Nicki on the stereo Think you’re looking fine Seems so many years ago The twink you once were left to go And you’re ageing like milk, not wine Snide remarks ‘bout people’s weight You’d never take them on a date And now your looks are in the past All that ego, all that mouth Anger at things going south What made you special didn’t last You’re not as clever as you think you are You’re not as sexy as you think you look in your car It makes no difference, it’s not black-and-white Answer me this: must you always be right What I find so delicious Is that you were just malicious Now you think you understand But, of course, you’re still clueless Of exactly what the truth is And you were always underhand Hierarchy of the pretty face Putting yourself in first place An unappealing toxic trait “Hot” is such a shallow label But your place at the hot boys’ table Came with an expiry date You’re not as clever as you think you are You’re not as sexy as you think you look in your car It makes no difference, it’s not black-and-white Answer me this: must you always be right You’re not as clever as you think you are You’re not as sexy as you think you look in your car It makes no difference, it’s not black-and-white Answer me this: must you always be right You’re not as clever as you think you are You’re not as sexy as you think you look in your car It makes no difference, it’s not black-and-white Answer me this: must you always be right
