I Was the Life of the Party

Lyrics

[Intro] Do-do-do-do-do-do-do, doo-ooh-ooh Do-do-do-do-do-do-do, doo-ooh-ooh I'm the life of the party, I'm the life of the party [Verse] Tonight is the night when I'll see her again But she'll be with another man Will I be strong? Will I hold on When I see them holding hands? "It's just a party," I keep tellin' myself And, "So what if she's with someone else?" I'll put on my best smile and clown for a while And no one would notice the sadness in my heart [Chorus] I was the life of the party (Tryna have some fun) I laughed loud and hardy (I was the only one) I told all my best jokes Everybody was amazed I was laughin' instead of crying But inside, I was dying And there's no denying [Post-Chorus] Hey, the life of the party I laughed 'til I almost cried Laughed so hard I almost cried, baby I hope nobody can see The joke was really on me Just pain-exaggerated pride Tryin' hard not to let it get me down [Chorus] I was the life of the party (Tryna have some fun) Oh, I laughed loud and hardy (I was the only one) I told all my best jokes, well Everybody was amazed I was laughin' instead of crying But inside, I was dying [Post-Chorus] Oh, the life of the party I laughed 'til I almost cried, ooh, baby Ooh, the life of the party I laughed 'til I almost cried Oh (The life of the party), baby, I laughed ('Til I almost cried) [Chorus] I was the life of the party (Tryna have some fun) Oh, I laughed loud and hardy (I was the only one) I told all my best jokes Well, everybody was amazed I was laughin' instead of crying But inside I was dying And there's no denying, well [Outro] Said the life of the party, I laughed 'til I almost cried I was watchin' and dancin' But I kept right on prancin' Well, everybody was amazed I was laughin' instead of cryin' I feel like dyin' Feel like cryin' Well, everybody was amazed I was laughin' instead of cryin' Now the joke's on me (Alright) But I could not see (Hey) Everybody was a-jumpin' and a-bumpin' and a-skippin' around Uh, I feel like dyin' I feel like cryin' Hey, I said the life of the party, I laughed 'til I almost cried Now the joke's on me
