Life of the Party

Every joke that I make
Is seconds too late
So none of them seem to land
Just a confused expression
Followed by the question
What are you talking about

I'm as sharp as a knife
But I'm just too polite
So I wait for my turn to speak
But the moment has gone
And the joke comes out wrong
Everyone stares at their feet

Life of the party
This is where you belong
Life of the party
This is where you were born to be

Every joke that I speak
Is now way too early
And I cut off your sentence too soon
Seems I just interrupt
So the crowd don't erupt
I'm in danger of losing the room

See my timing is off
Silence, then a cough
Why does this happen every time?
Comedy is hard
But we all play our part
Now I am someone else's punchline

Life of the party
Here's one you might not have heard
Life of the party
Hanging on your every word

Life of the party
Come and take your seat
Life of the party
There's someone I'd like you to meet
