"What A Devastating Turn Of Events"

Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
(What a devastating turn of events)
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo

A recommendation from a friend of a friend
Took a follow then a little DM
She was tempted, never had a lover
(Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah)
She hesitated but she'd seen him before
He asked her out and she couldn't ignore
So excited, another world to discover
(Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah)

Oh no, God damn wish she'd known back then
The beginning to the end was near
But lust was in the air
Getting giddy as she tells her friends
FaceTimes till 2:00 A.M
What a fascinating boy she didn't choose
But she's got nothing to lose

Two heads in the morning bed
Felt a little foreign, but she didn't regret
She was lonely, couldn't tell anybody
(Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah)
He said all right things and it got to her head
She felt a feeling that she didn't expect
In the moment, she didn't want anybody
(Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah)

But him, she'd planned
A wedding in her head
With who she thought would be her man
Her Charming till the end
All she wanted was a kid, a fam
Oh, goodness, gracious, damn
What a complicated view far from the truth
Then here, here came something new

Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
(What a devastating turn of events)
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo

Three weeks on, then he left her on read
A morning sickness and she knew it from then
She'd be crying in despair to her mother
(Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah)
Out of wedlock which her family despise
But if she lost it, it would still be a crime
Now she's crying from the sight of her mother
(Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah)

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh no, God damn wish she'd known back then
The beginning to the end was near
Still, hope was in the air In her desperation, life's unfair
For women where she lives
What a disappointing world she didn't choose, with a man's ego to bruise

Spamming messages with tears in her eyes
Little did she know, it'd be the day that she'd die
In the kitchen, eating things that she shouldn't
(Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah)
She woke up dizzy under hospital lights
Her poor mother had the shock of her life
When the doctors said they tried and couldn't
(Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah)

Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
What a devastating turn of events
I wish she'd known back then
All she wanted was a lover, her friend
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
What a devastating loss we didn't choose
She's in me and she's in you
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
What a devastating turn of events
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
All she wanted was a lover, her friend
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
