Really interesting twist on the "Mr. Nice Guy" trope, and you do so in such an upbeat fashion! Sounding great, Crísthopper. Nice touch with the falsetto at the end.

Very strong melody on this and I love the lyrics!

Really good take on the subject, well written and nicely arranged. Great job!

Love the staccato piano driving the song, but then letting up temporarily towards the end. Really good lyrics, and melody too.

My mom and uncle used to say I was too nice in certain situations and that sometimes. My uncle would say "you haven't done anything if you have no enemies" when I was dealing with a frustrating, somewhat bullying teammate back in the day.  I'm not saying I'm tough (or nice haha) at all but your song made it interesting to reflect on this idea.

Wow! This is incredible on every level. Painfully real but equally fair in its stark fact. Fantastic music, really gave my ear a workout.

The fifth tale of Snow and Cherry

No more Mr. Nice Guy

he's the type they bring home to family dinner
he's the kind they don't know they're looking for
because who wouldn't want to date a winner
just you wait for lines outside his door

dude is so good at bending over backwards
counts the days for his favors to return
he thinks he deserves everything for being nice
but everybody knows nice guys finish last
the only way out is through

no more Mr. Nice Guy
no more Mr. Nice Guy
no more Mr. Nice Guy
no more Mr. Nice Guy

he's so tired of pretending to be simple
there is only so much a man can hide
it's no wonder he can't tell why he's single
all he learned to give is an eye for an eye
the only way out is through

no more Mr. Nice Guy
no more Mr. Nice Guy
no more Mr. Nice Guy
no more Mr. Nice Guy

he thinks he deserves everything for being nice
but everybody knows nice guys finish last
the only way out is through
