Ooh... same seat, same scene
Will this be a movie or... just routine?
Everyone is dressed to glow
I show up, a half-warm hello
He scans the room, skips my face
Like I’m just some outer space
She giggles, he slides her tea
Guess the punchline’s always me
I'm the "friend," not "future bride"
Laugh and sip, my pride aside
Changed my style, I cut my bangs
Still ignored by dating gangs
So I smile like it’s all fine
Even when I'm out of line
Always last in photo frames
Always lost in silly games
I rehearse my clever bit
But no sparks, no match, no fit
Still I smile, I play my part
Queen of jokes and lonely hearts
He says, “What do you do?” then yawns
Talks to her 'bout crypto cons
I nod like I’ve heard it all
Still alone at curtain call
Switched cologne, wore brighter red
Still no signal, left on read
At this point, it’s kinda cute
I’m the joke inside the suit
Hearts connect like Wi-Fi spots
Mine just buffers, then it stops
So I smile like it’s all fine
Even when I'm out of line
Always last in photo frames
Always lost in silly games
I rehearse my clever bit
But no sparks, no match, no fit
Still I smile, I play my part
Queen of jokes and lonely hearts
One day I won’t chase the spark
I’ll find joy inside the dark
Someone weird will see my light
Laugh with me, and hold me tight
Still I smile, that’s how I cope
In between the laughs and hope
If love skips me every time
I’ll still dance and make it rhyme
I'm not wrong, just not their type
But I shine when jokes are ripe
So I smile, my grand disguise
In this game of dating lies
So I smile... and improvise.
