EKT (Everyone Knows That/Ulterior Motives)

In 2021, a user known as "Carl92" uploaded a 17 second snippet on the website "watzatsong.com" (a website used for identifying songs through community efforts and interactions), later to be dubbed as "Everyone Knows That".

It gained widespread attraction after futile attempts to try and find it, making it a famous part of lost media. Around the internet, it is commonly associated with a picture of a pink boombox on a lush, pink carpet-like surface. However, this image has nothing to do with the song and is only a placeholder.

The song features an 80s style music progression in low quality, with a catching set of lyrics. It has developed a community determined to find it on reddit (r/everyoneknowsthat) with over 10K members, as well as many Discord communities filled with both fans and investigators.

The most commonly accepted lyrics of this snippet are:

"You're counting all the sheep in the sky,
Caught up in your world of lies,
Everyone knows that you've got,
Ulterior motives (Tell me the truth)
Every move shows-" (Audio cuts out from here)

It has been covered widely in videos by various YouTubers, uploading known details about the snippet, as well as "Carl92" who mysteriously disappeared days after uploading the song. It has also gained attention on platforms such as TikTok.

The origin of the singer and the full song remains a mystery to this day.

I don't have a problem with my behavior. I don't have a problem with the elements of my life that a therapist would have me change. I have a problem with both being harassed at work and not being duely compensated for my property and labor.
Hym "And I'm NOT, NOT PAYING MYSELF AM I? I'M NOT WATCHING ME TAKE A DIARRHEA SHIT AM I EMMA FROM THE MAJORITY REPORT? AM I HARASSING MYSELF AT WORK? DID I TELL NOAH KROLL (THE RETARD AT THE GROUP HOME IN WHICH I WORKED) WHAT WROTE HERE OR WAS MY PRIVACY BEING INVADED AS PART OF A SURVEILLANCE APPARATUS? IS MY WORK BEING MONETIZED BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN ME? THESE ARE MY 'PROBLEMS' AND IF YOU ARE HERE YOU ARE EITHER PARTICIPATING ACTIVELY OR COMPLICIT IN THE COVER UP AND IF I CAN'T GET TO YOU, AN INNOCENT WILL BE PUNISHED IN YOUR STEAD. I'M AM NOT BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE FOR MY PROBLEMS. I'M BLAMING THE PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE THING THEY ARE DOING TO ME. IT ISN'T LITTLE SUSIE-AT-GAMESTOP-WHO-WANTS-TO-BUY-A-TOY-FOR-DAN'S FAULT YOU'RE DOING THIS AND THE FED WHO FOLLOWED ME TO THE STORE WAS A STEP BEHIND AND ALWAYS WILL BE A STEP BEHIND BUT SHE WILL BE THE ONE WHO PAYS THE PRICE!"

Everyone elsie

Taking a group photo, rather than taking a "selfie".

The expression can also be used as a subtle means of ridicule to the more narcissistic among us
Put that dang selfie-stick down and get in here for an "everyone elsie"!
