about

Melissa Marth wrote that snappy little tune about suicide and the thrill of rejection. I don't know this Maurine and Brent that she speaks of in the lyrics, but Mel clearly is disinterested in their opinions. If your name is Maurine OR Brent, it's probably you she's talking to. Both of those names are very rare.

lyrics

Give Christine my Gucci handbag
She was always a good friend
Give April my Tiffany necklace
Cuz' I loved her 'till the end
Give Justine my Jimmy Choo heels
We wear exactly the same size
Give Maureen nothing and tell her
I know all about her lies

Everybody was invited to the party but me
Everybody was invited to the party but me
Everybody was invited to the party but me

I thought about Daddy's car
But I don't want it to overheat
I thought about booze and pills
But I'm not one to over-eat
I thought about razors
I don't think I'd have the stomach for that
So before I go, could someone tell me,
Does this noose make me look fat?

Everybody was invited to the party but me
Everybody was invited to the party but me
Everybody was invited to the party
Everybody was invited to the party but me
Everybody was invited to the party but me
Everybody was invited to the party but me

So tell Daddy not to worry about that Benz for my birthday
Tell Brent I know about him and Moo-rine, I think they're gay!
