Bo Burnham - Straight White Male Lyrics
Make Happy Tour
#boburnham
Full Lyrics:
Walking around, I've got no one to talk to
There's everyone, and then there's just me
If I could change, don't you think that I'd do it
God only knows why he cursed me to be
a straight white male
I state my problems
other people roll their eyes
Three trips to the mall
and zero khakis in my size
I've never been the victim
of a random search for drugs
But you can't say my life is easy
until you've walked a mile in my UGGs
Straight white male, I know the road looks tough ahead
The women want rights
The gays want kids
Can't you just leave us alone?
And also, no, to the things you asked for
Everyone thinks that I've got it easy
Just 'cause it's true, doesn't mean that it's right
So pull up a chair, and put down your pitchfork
Give me a chance to show you what it's like
to be a straight white male
The churches never made me
Feel ashamed of who I am
But I get e-mails from Quiznos
that g-mail doesn't mark as spam
My country's Constitution was
hand-written by my race
But my wife bought me the brand new iPhone
with an iPod Touch's case (it doesn't fit that phone)
Straight white male, I know the road looks tough ahead
The women want rights
The blacks want not to be called the blacks
Can't you just leave us alone?
And also, no, to the things you asked for
No
Straight white male, I know the road looks tough ahead
The women want rights
The African-Ameri-it doesn't work for the rhythm of this song

So true no one has it easy. Saying I have it easy just because I share the same skin pigmentation, gender and sexuality as those who have power is bigoted. It's almost as if people think bigoted logic is okay as long as it's applied to the "right" people. Stupid idea, you're forging a weapon that could cause havoc once you lose control of it.
As a group we have power, but that means nothing when you're a 30 year old, unemployed, mentally ill misanthrope.

Frank Feliz You do realize being educated wouldn’t stop him from watching CZcams videos right?
Trashy Comments no, but being a guy who hosts multiple radio shows, podcasts, etc. and who constantly studies and runs various businesses probably prevents him from sitting around watch Bo Burnham videos. Like... obviously it’s douchebags like us only watching this crap.

@@Luxembourgish whatever that is yes
As a former redditor, I can confirm this is pretty accurate. :/
There's a reason I only look at meme subreddits, LGBTQIA+ subreddits, wholesome subreddits, and occasionally subreddits making fun of inanimate objects (mostly jokingly) when I go on reddit.
Oh yeah, pro tip to anyone that uses reddit: NEVER look at the political subreddits, gaming subreddits, or sports subreddits. From what I've seen so far they're toxic to the point where it's slightly scary.
"They know deep down inside they're being selfish"😂😂😂
that's not even what he said

they secretly relate lol
I’m a straight white male and I think this song is funny af though
Do they all happen to be straight white men, i think that could explain a lot
@@deusinc.8484 Same dude. The song isn't making fun of straight white dudes. We have no choice to be straight and white the same way gay people and people of other races have no choice over who they are and who they are attracted to. This song is making fun of toxic masculinity and idiots thinking they are being oppressed because people are being brought to the same level as them
Deus Inc.
Good for you.
probably the funniest part of all this is he jst ends the song without a big final chord or any kind of ending or anything
It symbolizes the lack of clear goals white straight males have and how empty they feel inside.

@@dustincrawford7775 Both sexes have their own issues. However the Justice system is really REALLY against men. Men get longer time in jail for the same crime a woman would commit. Men can get blamed for rape and imprisoned before any court and even if the woman admits she made it up she barely gets any time or fine if any at all and no matter that the man's life is ruined forever because no matter how many times he is proven innocent he will never have a normal life (quick note I don't support rape and every rapist needs to die). Devorce casees oh man don't even get me started. 9/10 cases will end up with the man seeing his children maybe 1-2 times a month at most and pay child support on top of that half of his thingsare taken by the woman even if he had them pre marrige. The justice system opresses men big time.

replies in the comment section do NOT pass the vibe check. Yes, straight white men, we get it you have struggles. We all have struggles. But are your struggles because you are straight, white, or a man? N o. Also, this song is about Straight White Men, not straight white men, if you know what I'm trying to say. Calm down, if you're offended by this song you are indeed the problem
Not really with straight or white but people absolutely do face struggles by virtue of being a man.
@Carter Bohrer All right chill. There have been significant studies that shows how much meant to press their emotions. And how they are encouraged to actively suppressed emotions. Not to mention the stereotype of always being the strongest in the best of everything is toxic. I’m not saying that excuses man of course it doesn’t. But men do face and extreme expectations that are just unbelievable, the same thing can be said about female beauty we are expected to reach these unbelievable stereotypes that will never occur.
@Carter Bohrer And? That doesn't mean it's not an issue. You also seem to forget it's influenced by controlling and abusive girls who mock boys for being weak.
Honestly I don't like the concept of saying that "Straight White Men" will never have to experience problems because of their gender, race, or sexual orientation. What's the point of saying that. There's always a scenario where any person could be faced with injustice because of something about their composition. Like the Menendez case from the 1980s about 2 teen boys who shot and killed their parents. They had been violently sexually abused their whole lives by their mom and dad, and killed them out of self defense. They said they knew their parents were going to kill them. Guess what, they were found guilty of murder. The prosecution testified they killed their parents for money, and the judge made a statement saying men could not be sexually abused. Apparently the jury thought so too. If they were 2 teen girls killing their sexual abusers, no doubt the jury would never have bat an eye. On top of that, the jury was hung twice before the guilty verdict. Literally anyone can experience any injustice because humanity is evil and will cause wickedness anywhere. Yes, black, gay, and female people experience injustices, but so can any other type of people. Like saying they CANT denies human nature.
@Carter Bohrer well my friend who wasn't allowed to even cry was not allowed to do so even by his mothers side (it's all good now tho it's getting better)
I have also seen girls say that men shouldn't cry and invalidating their coping mechs like talking to pets or shit (coming from a girl btw)
For someone who is a gay hawaiian nonbinary; I share all my support to my straight white bros out there, the hardships you guys face really shows how strong y'all are 😭😭❤️❤️
Haha
Thanks homie. I just got back from my 4th trip to the mall today, and still no luck with a khakis, but knowing I have the nonbinary's support is really helping me ✊

“Just cause it’s true doesn’t mean that it’s right” is comedy gold in this context
While I do agree that straight white men have issues of there own, the whole point of the song is to highlight guys who think they’re being brought down by minorities having rights.
Straight white men have issues of their own BUT for the most part it doesn’t have to do with their race, gender or sexuality but rather life circumstances (and this song is also focusing on the upper middle class)
Facts
Yeah, there was someone complaining about the stigma surrounding straight white males, and they didn’t seem to understand.
I would say about a reality here.
That it's not really white being opressed but rather everyone else getting more. Just the propaganda that goes in every country that doesn't leave anything to own opinion and experience is stupid.

I've been reading the comments section and everyone has to realize that this is a joke song and not to take it seriously.
CARL Saratoga thank you
i mean what it says it's kinda true lol
It's so well written it's both funny and true. The mark of a great comedian! Same goes for Dave Chappelle for instance, you can look for something more of substance within the joke.
I mean, you kinda do have to take it seriously. Misinterpreting satire isn't what we should be calling serious.
@@shitpostingstevebecauseall6279 true
One thing in this song that I love and think is absolutely genius is the part where Bo tries to switch out the term "blacks" for African American's and then stops himself and says it doesn't fit with the rhythm. It's a funny joke, but it also helps to show one of the main points in the song. Straight white men have been told how to fix some of the issues, such as change the names they use to describe people, only for them to act as if they can't do it. Instead of changing the rhythm to accommodate the new term, he simply says it doesn't fit with the rhythm he's already established, and isn't willing to change it. I don't know if this was intentional or not but I think it's a really neat detail.
I’ve always wanted to ask why do Americans refer to black people as “African Americans” ? Why do they add that extra bit to differentiate between “Americans” always came across as subtlety racist.
@@decrulez I think it's meant to be less demeaning than other terms, such as blacks, which can come across as hateful. I know some people who are Black that are cool with the term and don't see a problem with it, while others don't like it. As a white person it's not really my place to say whether or not it's racist, but for the most part I don't think people use it to be harmful.
@@decrulez Honestly straight white males have a talent to make any given term derogatory, so I suspect it's less about the term itself and more about the fact it's not already being used as an insult. Full disclosure, I'm a straight white male myself and am likely missing some insight into this, but there does seem to be a cycle to these things. Especially consider that previously "negro" was also used, although I don't know enough of the history to say if "black" as a noun was at some point changed to as it was considered less insulting or whether the switch was due to other cultural factors.
@@traveller23e people should just get over it I think
This comment section is terrible lol
it kept getting worse, I really can't recommend not coming back here enough
Ikrrrr

God bless the relatable straight White Males 🙏🙏🙏
Mixed race, trans, gay, genderfluid (mainly he/him), asexual (not aromantic). Can not agree more.
“We used to have all the money and land.”
“…and we still do but its not as fun now.”
Of course a white straight male can have problems, the point it's that those problems aren't usually connected to being straight nor white nor male, like when was the last time you heard that a dude was kicked out of the house because he was straight or a white dude getting "randomly" stopped by the police and getting a drug search, it's not that hard to understand.
How about all the goddamn time?
@@steelbear2063 what? Dudes getting kicked out of their houses because they were into girls?
@@MikeGloria When does that happen in 2019 cus a dudes gay
LGBTQWERTY+, blacks and other minorities' problems aren't such a big deal as they were in the past (which doesn't mean they don't exist, same for white people). The problems related to race and sexuality happen less frequently for white straight males, but now a lot of people seem to accuse us, white straight males, that it's our fault.
@@cactusjacksentme3211 yes that's actually a problem in my eyes, like the way to make more people be on your side it's not by shaming them every time they don't agree with you instantly, i feel like doing that it's only detrimental to your movement.
Rewatching all of Bo's videos, and I've never missed live performance more.
I cant wait for him to come back someday!
He came back!
@@Carmen-gw6no And Inside is incredible!!
this was doomed to have pointless arguments all over the comment section
3:20 this bit especially just shows how much of a beast Bo is on the piano
"straight white male"
*ahem* my whole family *ahem*
Is your family just made up of single, straight, white guys adopting children that continue the tradition?

This video is making fun of people like you wake up headass
J.D G it’s making fun of the straight white males actually. Idiot. It’s a joke song
It's hilarious satire but not to everyone and that's fine.
@@JDG-hq8gy ... wow. It's not easy to miss the point so hard that it could cause one to pause in astonishment scrolling through a youtube comments thread. ::smh::

*intense staring at the lyrics*
I found this very funny. Coming back knowing that I don't fit with 66% of the labels, I find it better
congratulations! (same)
I love how dark the music gets at the end. It's probably why I keep coming back to this
Even without the hilarious lyrics, I honestly love the melody lmao
I love how sets up a character you feel sentimental for then immediately tears it down
that piano solo omg I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!
3:18 - 3:42 was sick af
I love that this is just a black screen with a tiny man singing
Love how he’s just in the void lol
Ima bi Hispanic female but I will still scream this song at the top of my lungs cause God is it funny lmao
Also no to the things you asked for.
i am a straight white male and i will also sing this song
edit: i’m bi, no more singing
Sure you will, u are not part of the group that is being ridiculed in this song. Find a song making fun of bi hispanic females
@@buhuchet4189 Thats way too specific so I'm sure that song doesn't exist.

For the people here confused: THIS SONG IS A JOKE! ALL BO’S SONGS ARE A JOKE!!!!
It is making fun of straight white cis males trying to be oppressed even though they are the majority and in charge
Edit: I do not have a problem with people who have any of these labels, I was just clarifying that the song is meant to make fun of people with those labels that try to be oppressed so hard. Not all straight white cis males do this, it’s just poking fun at the ones that do.
if you pulled up to me and called me a "cis male" id rock you in the face idc who you are
Arsenal 123 there is nothing wrong with being a cis male. Cis males are totally fine I have no problem with them and Bo doesn’t either, him also being a cis male. The point of the song isn’t that cisgender males are bad, it’s that the white cisgender straight males who do try to be oppressed because they want to be special too, even though everybody is already special in their own way whether it is apparent or not. Not all cisgender males do this. I do not feel cisgender male is an insult so sorry if you do. I just see the terms “cisgender” and “male” as identifiers so I know what gender you are and if talking about trans issues and making jokes about being trans would be appropriate (not joking about trans people just joking about the experience and the “journey”). I do not view cisgender males any different than a cisgender or transgender woman. I was trying to clear up some of the confusion around this song and I’m sorry if I was misunderstood. I hope you can see this and know that it is not an attack on you, I just wanted to clear up somethings because the way you worded your comment sounds like you thought I think cisgender males are inferior or bad. I have no problem with any group of people with any label as long as they don’t purposefully try to harm people emotionally, mentally, or physically when they are in a “right” state of mind (i.e. not drunk, high, angry, etc. Basically if you are sober and not angry/depressed). I hope this comment reaches you in good health and an open mind to read my comment and try to understand it. I can see how my comment would be confusing. Have a great day!
They aren't even the majority
Aren't Asians the majority?
@@F1rstNameLastName yes they are
The straight white dudes getting upset in the comments really shows how little they've actually had to put up with if this is what sets them off 😂
Indeed. We can't let people rip down the force known as post-modernist, group identity conflict theory. It's what we need to bring about The Revolution. Stay strong comrade. We will defeat them soon!
For those of you here from the Tom Macdonald version, whose do you like more?
Musical Comedy definitely Bo’s
I like them both, they are very different styles
Bo's because it's satire istead of real thoughts
Your satire is better than his reality 👌
both are good imo
I've been missing out A LOT. This is amazing
I'm a Mexican gay female but I love this fricking song
Im not sure how that should be impressive, its kind of like saying you arent jewish (or german) but you laugh at holocaust jokes or you arent a billionaire but you laugh at rich people jokes. A bit weird to be proud of it is all
@@jeice13 So, I'm not going to jump to conclusions, but bringing up the Jews and the Holocaust in relation to straight white men implies that you think that they're being slaughtered. I'm sure you didn't mean to imply that "white genocide" exists, but I'm letting you know that you accidentally may have, so I hope you can amend that.
@@shitpostingstevebecauseall6279 No, Implying that he implied that implies that you're dumb lmao. He was just making a comparison and in no way did he even imply that he thinks that "straight white men are being slaughtered" what? Nice try though

So close yet so far
When you learn this on piano you actually appreciate this a lot more, it's insane.
