“Wrong’s What I Do Best” is a rebellious anthem for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re destined to color outside the lines. It’s more than just a song; it’s a statement of embracing imperfection and owning who you are—even when you’re not the hero of the story. The title alone sets the tone: unapologetic, raw, and just a little bit defiant.
With a touch of gritty realism, the song acknowledges life’s stumbles and how sometimes, getting it right isn’t as satisfying as making a glorious mess of things. It’s a tune for the misfits, the rule-breakers, and the ones who’ve learned to find beauty in being a little rough around the edges. It doesn’t preach perfection; instead, it celebrates the flawed, the fearless, and those who dare to live boldly in their truth.
The lyrics blend humor and vulnerability, capturing that bittersweet recognition of being one’s own worst enemy—and loving it anyway. It’s the kind of song you play loud when you want to drown out the critics and just be yourself, imperfections and all. In essence, “Wrong’s What I Do Best” is an anthem of self-acceptance, perfectly imperfect, and proud of every misstep that makes it unique.

Lyrics
Some men look for diamonds
Some men look for gold
I’m just trying to find myself
Before I get too old
Different people have their ways
Of measuring success
Maybe it’s not the right way but wrong’s what I do best
Well, I walk the straight and narrow
Straight to where I don’t belong
One time I even tried to love one woman
But that didn’t last too long
If my ship was docking in the east
You can bet I’d be headin’ west
Right in the wrong direction
‘Cause wrong’s what I do best
When I’m down and out
And kicked about, I feel right at home
When I got the blues and it’s all bad news
That’s when I’m in my comfort zone
Well, If they held a loser’s playoff
Well, there’d be no contest
‘Cause I’ve had lots of practice
And wrong’s what I do best
If my ship was docking in the east
You can bet I’d be heading west
I’m right in the wrong direction
‘Cause wrong’s what I do best
Right in the wrong direction
‘Cause wrong’s what I do best
