I Know You're Catfishing Someone Else
A comic heartbreak song about knowingly loving a catfish, then feeling betrayed when the fake romance is not exclusive.

Lyrics
I Know You're Catfishing Someone Else
By Smartass Amoeba
I knew your name was borrowed
I knew your face was too
I caught you in a hundred lies
And still came back to you
You told me you were lonely
You said you needed me
I knew your love was counterfeit
But loved the company
I never asked for honesty
I never needed proof
I only wanted all your lies
To be reserved for me
A stranger posted screenshots
To warn the world of you
I recognized the photograph
And every word I knew
You told him he was special
You told him he was kind
You even called him sweetheart
A name I thought was mine
I could forgive the photograph
I could forgive the name
But seeing all those words again
Is more than I can take!
I KNOW YOU’RE CATFISHING SOMEONE ELSE!
(I THOUGHT I WAS YOUR ONLY FOOL!)
I KNOW YOU’RE CATFISHING SOMEONE ELSE!
(YOU BROKE THE ONE AND ONLY RULE!)
I never asked you to be real
I never asked you to be true
I only wanted all your lies
To be between us two!
I KNOW YOU’RE CATFISHING SOMEONE ELSE!
You drained my wallet
And my self-esteem
But I can’t quit you
Though I know it’s a scheme
I knew that you were using me
I knew it from the start
But I thought I had a special place
Inside your fraudulent heart
SAME WORDS!
SAME HEARTS!
SAME GOODNIGHT TEXT!
HOW MANY “ONLY ONES”
ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR!
I SAW YOUR OTHER PROFILE!
(WE ALL DID!)
YOU SENT HIM THE SAME PICTURE!
(WE ALL GOT IT!)
I wasn’t asking for forever
I wasn’t asking you to stay
I only wanted you to need me
In your own dishonest way
Your love was counterfeit
But my jealousy is real
How can something never given
Be the very thing you steal?
I KNOW YOU’RE CATFISHING SOMEONE ELSE!
(I THOUGHT I WAS YOUR ONLY FOOL!)
I KNOW YOU’RE CATFISHING SOMEONE ELSE!
(YOU BROKE THE ONE AND ONLY RULE!)
I NEVER ASKED FOR HONESTY!
I NEVER WANTED PROOF!
I JUST WANTED YOU TO LIE TO ME
THE WAY YOU USED TO DO!
I KNOW YOU’RE CATFISHING SOMEONE ELSE!
I KNOW! (I KNOW!)
YOU KNOW! (YOU KNOW!)
HE KNOWS! (HE KNOWS!)
WE ALL KNOW!
You weren’t the face inside the photograph
I knew that from the start
But knowing didn’t stop me
From giving you my heart
I knew it was a lie…
I just thought it was mine.
