"The Universe is Against Me" is a song sung by Candace and accompanied by Vanessa on the guitar in Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Candace Against the Universe.
Lyrics
Candace: I can't take it anymore,
I don't know why I even get out of bed!
And why when I've seen it all before?
It's like a dagger hanging over my head.
Every day is just the same,
I always have to hang my head in shame.
It doesn't matter time or place,
There's always egg on my face.
The universe is against me,
And no one here defends me.
Everyone pretends we
Haven't seen it all before.
And it sends me
Into this manic frenzy.
And, yes, it still offends me!
The whole universe is against me!
You would not believe the mayhem
That they think up under that tree.
It always works out great for the two of them.
How come it never works out for me?
It's like banging my head into a wall.
This constant losing makes me feel so small.
I don't know where I should begin.
When do I get a win?
The universe is against me!
And no one here defends me.
And Everyone pretends we
Haven't seen it all before.
And it sends me
Into this manic frenzy.
And, yes, it still offends me!
The whole universe is against me!
(The whole universe is against me...
The whole universe is against me...)
The whole universe is against me!
