Verse:
I wasn't dressed right, I rarely am
You told me that you didn't care
I laughed as you wobbled in your platform shoes,
You laughed when I called the ending true, I need an award (?)
Chorus:
And the song said, "Let's be happy", and I was happy,
It never made me happy before
And the song said, "Don't be lonely", it makes me lonely,
I hear it and I'm lonely more and more
Where I belong,
Where I belong (don't play any notes at this part this time around)
