The Bridesmaid Song

You know that look you get when you show up at a wedding
And you're all by yourself
Everyone gives you that I'm so sorry
You're still sing eye

Well I don't think they're justified, and with each ugly dress I buy
i'm reminded that I'm the only girl there
Who still has a life

Chorus
Well I'm tired of hearing honey "someday you'll find someone"
Like I'm not complete on my own
I'm tired of having to reply "I probably won't"
Cuz I'm selfish and I'm mean, I can't cook and I don't clean
And I ain't changing it for anyone
No, who needs a ball and chain
I'd rather be the bridesmaid

Your best friend gets a ring
Six months later you're still alone
So you become the enemy

They're nice to your face but they judge you when you walk away
Say there must something wrong with you
To be alone at 22

Well I don't think they're justified
God forbid that I live my own life

Chorus
Well I'm tired of hearing honey "someday you'll find someone"
Like I'm not complete on my own
I'm tired of having to reply "I probably won't"
Cuz I'm selfish and I'm mean, I can't cook and I don't clean
And I ain't changing it for anyone
No, who needs a ball and chain
I'd rather be the bridesmaid

Bridge
Tell me something I don't know
That you love putting down the toilet seat and folding his clothes

Well I'm tired of hearing honey "someday you'll find someone"
Like it's wrong not to be married by the time I'm 22
Well I'd rather spend my 20's chasing dreams than chasing men
Maybe when I'm 30 I'll be ready for a change
But for now, give me that ugly dress
I'd rather be the bridesmaid
