"I Was The Life Of The Party" lyrics

"I Was The Life Of The Party"

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

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

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

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

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

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)

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

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
