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 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 me, "How does it feel to be here 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, sequel's 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
