Why Not Me? by The Lonely Island Lyrics

[HOST 1, spoken]
Congratulations to all of the 90th Academy Award Nominees

[HOST 2, spoken]
I love these movies
But they never seem to choose the blockbusters, do they?

[HOST 1, spoken]
They sure don't
I guess they'll just have to settle for all that money, huh?

[THOR]
Why not me?
Do I not deserve a nomination?
The reviews were raves to be sure
"Fun for the whole family
Look no farther than Thor"

[WONDER WOMAN]
Why not me?
I left my family to fight for what's right
Saved the world from the devil below
But I'm sure it was hard for
Sir Daniel Day-Lewis to learn how to sew
[THOR & WONDER WOMAN]
Why not me?

[THOR]
I battled Cate Blanchett

[THOR & WONDER WOMAN]
Why not me?

[WONDER WOMAN]
I hid a sword in my dress

[THOR & WONDER WOMAN]
We both faced death it's true
But at least Lady Bird got into NYU...

[PENNYWISE]
Why not me?
In All The Money in the World
They kidnapped one kid
And they got a nomination
I killed hundreds
I guess that's what you get
When you're not
"Classically handsome"
Oscars so white
But I guess not for me
I need to raise my quote
So I can finally fix my teeth
Horror movies always get the shaft
[TIFFANY HADDISH, spoken]
Hey... let me do one!

(sung)
I peed while hanging from a zip-line
Meryl Streep has never done that

[THE 4 CHRISES]
We'd like to petition for
A new category:
"Best Chris"
Or you could just write "Chris"
On an Oscar
And we can share it
Trade off on weekends

[EVANS]
Roll call!

[HEMSWORTH]
Hemsworth!

[PRATT]
Pratt!

[EVANS]
Evans!
[PINE]
Pine!

[CHRIS ROCK]
Rock!

(sung)
What? It's us! The Chrises!

[THE 5 CHRISES]
Go Chris!

[MICHAEL FASSBENDER]
And why not The Snowman?
It was a box office smash

(spoken)
What's that? It wasn't?

(sung)
Well Oscars doesn't care
Since it was critically acclaimed

(spoken)
7% positive? Are you serious?

(sung)
Well I thought it was a neat idea

[AQUAMAN]
In The Shape of Water
I heard that a lady boned a fish man
But if you're gonna bone a fish man
Why not bone a fish like this man?

[DOMINIC TORETTO]
And what even is art?
How do you define its importance?
If popcorn movies are bad
How come popcorn's so delicious?
And when I blow up 6 cars
How is that worse than Schindler's List is?

[ALL]
Why not me?

[THOR & WONDER WOMAN]
We saved the world

[ALL]
Why not me?

[DOMINIC TORETTO]
I am Toretto

[ALL]
Why not me?

[AQUAMAN]
I heard a lady boned a fish man

[ALL]
Why not me?

[MICHAEL FASSBENDER]
The Snowman was underrated!

[ALL]
Why not me?

[THE 5 CHRISES]
We'd like to petition for
A new category:
"Best Chris"

[PENNYWISE]
I have terrible teeth

[ALL]
Why not me?

[THOR]
I got a cool new haircut

[ALL]
Why not me?

[BABY GROOT]
I am Groot

[ALL]
Why not us?
