lyrics

(one two three four!)

Fourth row, aisle seat, blue dress, entirely fine
Everybody kept checking on me which made it worse
I was FINE, I was actively having a nice time
(nice time!)
Nobody believed me and honestly fair enough

She looked so happy (so happy)
That's the part that ruined my whole revenge arc

Best friend wedding!
(wedding, wedding)
I came, I clapped, I meant it, I'm devastated
Best friend wedding!
All of those at once, apparently that's allowed

Her mother hugged me and said "she missed you, you know"
Which is a grenade to hand someone at a buffet
I said something normal and went outside for nine minutes
(nine minutes!)
Cried in a car park, fixed my face, came back for cake

Two years I rehearsed a speech about what she did.
Turns out I just wanted to be at the wedding.
That's it. That was the entire grievance.
(BAND EXPLODES)

Best friend wedding!
(wedding, wedding)
I came, I clapped, I meant it, I'm devastated
Best friend wedding!
All of those at once, apparently that's allowed

(wedding!)
