From Genius.Com: After the members of Electric Skates call him a loser, Squidward attempts to assure himself that he is, in fact, not a loser, with a showstopping number complete with four-legged tap-dancing, "Clarinet solo!", and double negatives. Lots and lots of double negatives.
From the Spongebob Wiki: In this showstopping eleven o'clock number, after the Electric Skates quit the show, they call Squidward a loser, but Squidward insists, through many double negatives, that he is not, and imagines he is joined by a sea anemone chorus and does a dazzling tap dance number.
Squidward: I'm not a loser
I don't secretly hate myself
I'm not singing this to no one
It's not the case that no one cares
I'm not a failure
I don't not have talent
When others see me they can't see
The nobody that isn't there
Hold on, that's a triple negative. You can't not see nobody. Because I'm not nobody! Which can't not be seen. Let me start over.
My life's not empty
They don't not like me at all
I don't not leave the house
'Cause I don't not prefer to stay at home
I don't stink
I'm not a waste
I'm not all alone in thinking
That I am not all alone
Maybe I am a loser.
Sea Anemones: Hey, Squidward
Squidward: Huh?
Sea Anemones: You're not delirious with despair
And you're not calling true things false
Hey, Squidward
Squidward: This is weird
Sea Anemones: You're not hallucinating this sea anemone
Chorus line at all
Squidward: I'm not?
Sea Anemones: You're not a loser
You don't secretly hate yourself
You're not singing this to no one
It's not the case that no one cares
Squidward: Okay!
Sea Anemones: You're not a failure
You don't not have talent
When others see you they can't see
The nobody that isn't there
Squidward (Sea Anemones): I'm not a loser! (Not a loser)
They don't not like me at all (No!)
I don't not leave the house
'Cause I don't not prefer to stay at home
I don't stink (You don't stink)
I'm not a waste (You're not a waste)
I'm not all alone in thinking
That I am not all alone
Clarinet solo!
(clarinet)
Look at me now, Mama!
(tap dance break)
Squidward (Sea Anemones): I'm not a loser (You're not a loser)
They don't not like me at all (No!)
I don't not leave the house (leave the house)
'Cause I don't not prefer to stay at home
(Yeah, yeah, stay at home!!!)
Hey! Shh!
I don't stink
I'm not a waste
I'm not all alone in thinking
That I'm not, not, not all alone
Sea Anemones: You are not alone
You are not alone
You are not, not, not, not
Not, not, not, not, not, not
Not alone
You are not, not, not alone!
