[Intro]
E B B/Bb
……..
E
I break the ice
B B/Bb
So they don’t see my size
E
And I have to be nice
B B/Bb
Or I’ll be the next punch line
[Verse 2]
E
I’m just the best friend in Hollywood movies
B B/Bb
Who only exists to continue the story
E
The girl gets the guy, while I’m standing off-screen
B B/Bb
So I’ll wait for my cue to be comedic relief
[Chorus]
E
Can’t be too loud, and can’t be too busy
B B/Bb
If I don’t answer now, are they still gonna need me?
E
Can’t be too proud, and can’t think I’m pretty
B B/Bb
Do they keep me around, so their flaws just seem silly?
[Refrain]
E
Life of the Fat, Funny, Friend
B B/Bb
Life of the Fat, Funny, Friend
[Verse 3]
E
I say I’m okay
B B/Bb
’cause they wouldn’t care anyway
E B
And I could try to explain my efforts in vain
B/Bb
They can’t relate
Ohh
[Verse 4]
E
I’ve drawn out in sharpie where I’d take the scissors
B B/Bb
If that’s what it took for me to look in the mirror
E
I’ve done every diet to make me look thinner
B B/Bb
So why Do I still feel so ******* inferior?
[Chorus]
E
Can’t be too loud, and can’t be too busy
B B/Bb
If I don’t answer now, are they still gonna need me?
E
Can’t be too proud, and can’t think I’m pretty
B B/Bb
Do they keep me around, so their flaws just seem silly?
[Refrain]
E
Life of the Fat, Funny, Friend
B B/Bb
Life of the Fat, Funny, Friend
[Verse 5]
G#m
It’s funny when I think a guy likes me
B B/Bb
And it’s funny when I’m the one who says, “let’s Go to eat”
E
It’s ******* funny when I’m asked to Go out on Halloween;
B
Dresses, and thigh-highs, while I hide my body
[Chorus]
E
Can’t be too loud, and can’t be too busy
B B/Bb
If I don’t answer now, are they still gonna need me?
E
Can’t be too proud, and can’t think I’m pretty
B B/Bb
Do they keep me around, so their flaws just seem silly?
[Refrain]
E
Life of the Fat, Funny, Friend
B B/Bb
Life of the Fat, Funny, Friend
E
Life of the Fat, Funny, Friend
B B/Bb
Life of the Fat, Funny, Friend
[Outro]
E B
I’ve drawn out in sharpie where I’d take the scissors…
