Guys, I was singing this song at karaoke and my mom likes it. I did a few more Will Wood songs and I think she's a fan now. Her favorite is Marsha Thankk You For The Dialects. So yeah, my almost 50, conservative, Christian mom likes Will Wood.

[@ghastryder3945]

Huh.

[@asageadayart]

W mom

[@starrrzzz2905]

Based

[@boneserikarsonrex2227]

If I sang this at karaoke in front of my mom I'd get in so much trouble

[@gfdgfsfddd8157]

this is hilarious

[@morganstauter8660]

I’ll never get over the little, cut-off “Woo!” at the end, it’s so funny

[@ocsanik502]

The way he intentionally stutters on the word balls makes me think of a old Duke Nukem meme.

[@HYP3RF1X4T3D]

bagel pfp real!!!!!!!!!

[@imgood2587]

Although I, as an aro/ace person will never be able to relate to this song, that will not stop it from being my main inspiration to play piano and learn to sing. I may one day fulfill the fantasy I have of preforming this.

[@amethyst..2]

I guess you could say…
You’ll never know what it’s like!

Can someone please give me the lyrics, please?

[@ace_of_spades2018]

They're on genius! I'd copy and paste them for you but I'm at like 2% and can't find my charger, but please go check em out! You won't regret it

[@morganstauter8660]

I know it’s been like a month, but here you go!! :-)
[Verse 1]
She’s got the eyes of a snake
Loaded dice raising stakes from a cash cow
I’ll be her burn victim, hypothermic, so damn hot
Come to smiling like I blacked out in Glasgow
I woke up in the name that I wore last night
To the sound of an empty bed
And it’s ringing in my ears just like
Sweet nothings from the voices in my head
[Chorus]
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord, don’t ask me what I mean
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord
[Verse 2]
She’s got the touch of an anesthesiologist
Please put me under
Because I tremble with the notion that there’s something unsaid
But numb my head, I’ll mumble reticently I wonder how I
I woke up in the middle of my surgery
And I watched them botch my heart
Only the second worst thing that I could’ve thought was
“This won’t have to end if it doesn’t start”
[Chorus]
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord, don’t ask me what I mean
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord
[Bridge]
I’ll never know, I’ll never know, I’ll never know
I’ll never know what it’s like, what it’s like to love you
I’ll never know, I’ll never know, I’ll never know
I’ll never know what it’s like, what it’s like to f-k you
[Chorus]
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord, heart bluer than my balls
Where do you get off being so goddamn beautiful?
Oh lord, just say that it’s on me

Hands down the best version of this song

[@hdanimatesorsomething]

A thought came to my mind and now I need to make Will Wood if he was a bus driver and just cut it off at “where do you get off”

can you do it or i’m going to do it 😭

DO IT!

off topic, i would think that will wood would be a fast typer, like it would only make sense to me for him to type at god speeds and no one would question it.

shit ur right

I mean, he’s played some crazy songs on the piano so I feel like that carries over somethinf

[@thespiderchillinginyourwalls]

Why was there a video titled "what every christian needs to know about the devil" under this one

it might have something to do with what the song is about (you don't want to know)

You definitely could just with belief and practice!! Its hard to do but it genuinely gets easier the longer you do it!! Don’t doubt yourself bud

SAME I learning some of his song but I need a bigger piano

[@Mars-music763]

I’m currently teaching myself yes to err is human by ear , which is hard enough , and my goal is to one day get to blackboxwarrior level. Which is hard enough just singing , but we’ll see how it goes.

Also you have to sit down while playing the cello! They have very similar structures but the upright bass is curved more downwards than the cello :)

[@fuzzygal]

they have more of that in the “Real Will Wood” version of WKJ ! :)
