Single art.

Troublemaker is an alternative rock song by Weezer released as a digital single on 2008-05-20, and released as track 1 on the Red Album on 2008-06-03.

If I ever feel like my ego just isn't big enough, I listen to Troublemaker. Weezer exemplifies big-headedness as they offer up a character who makes his own rules, and even breaks those! It's all about being the best, being unique, being far too cool for anyone to comprehend--all the while being an annoyance to the authorities. The constant rhythm and rapid-fire vocals don't give you a moment to slow down, and that's precisely why I like it. I love to properly embody the song by blasting it at full volume while cruising down the lanes of a quiet suburb.

The song has a pretty cool music video too.

Lyrics

Put me in a special school,
Cuz I am such a fool,
And I don't need a single book to teach me how to read
Who needs stupid books?
They are for petty crooks,
And I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams
So turn off the T.V.
Cuz that's what others see
And movies are as bad as eating chocolate ice-cream
They only sicken me
Don't let me play football
I'll sack the quarterback and jack the brother of the ball

I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doin' things my own way
And never giving up
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double-taker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up.

I picked up a guitar,
What does this signify?
I'm gonna play some heavy metal riffs and you will die
You wanted arts and crafts
How's this for arts and crass?
Wuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh
That's Right!
I'm growing out my hair
I'm moving out to Cherokee
I'm gonna be a rockstar
And you are gonna bear with me
Cuz I can't work a job
Like any other slob,
Punchin' in and punchin' out and suckin' up to Bob
Marryin' a beeyotch,
Havin' seven keeyods,
Givin' up and growin' old,
And hopin' there's a god.

I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doin' things my own way
And never giving up
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double-taker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up

I'm gonna be star
And people will crane necks
To get a glimpse of me
And see if I am having sex
And studying my moves
They try to understand
Why I am so unlike
The singers in the other bands
I'm such a mystery
As anyone can see
There isn't anybody else
Exactly quite like me
And when it's party time
Like 1999
I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy

I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doin' things my own way
And never giving up.
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double-taker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up.

Keep it on the up
(I'm a troublemaker)
Keep it on the up (UP!)
(I'm a troublemaker)
Keep it on the up
(I'm a troublemaker)
Keep it on the up (UP!)
(I'm a troublemaker)
Never giving up
