You helped me pick out a dress, I picked up your tie

Told you be ready by 6:45

I could've brought anyone

And I chose you

The carpet was rolled out, it should've been perfect

But you chose that moment, said this wasn't working

I had to do forty-five interviews

And, boy, you knew

I put on a smile, put on my makeup

Tried to pretend we didn't just break up

My name up in lights, I just wanna cry

You made what should be the best day of my life a disaster

For what it's worth, you made me a better actor

They ask mе, "How does it feel to be herе tonight?"

I'm honored, I'm grateful, I'm dying inside

It's the hardest part I've ever played

But the show must go on, yeah, that's show business, babe

I put on a smile, put on my makeup

Tried to pretend we didn't just break up

My name up in lights, I just wanna cry

You made what should be the best day of my life a disaster

For what it's worth, you made me a better actor

I ain't saying I'm Meryl Streep or Jodie Foster

But somebody go and get this girl an Oscar

'Cause I didn't shed a tear once that whole night

Guess now I can play a heartbroken girl right

So thank you

Thank you

I put on a smile, put on my makeup

This time, my mind ain't on a breakup

My name's up in lights, see it glows out tonight

I got a new man on the list for the party after

For what it's worth, you made me a better actor
