Should I do it on the phone?
Should I leave a little note in the pocket of his coat?
(Yeah)
Maybe I’ll just disappear
I Don’t wanna see a tear
And the weekend’s almost here
I’m picking out this dress
Trying on these shoes
Cause I’II be single soon
I’ll be single soon
I know he’ll be a mess
When I break the news,
But I’II be single soon
l’Il be single soon
Ima date who I wanna
Stay out late if I wanna
Ima do what I wanna do
I’m picking out this dress
Trying on these shoes
Cause I’ll be single soon
l’ll be single soon
I know I’m a little high maintenance
But I’m worth a try
Might not give a reason why
(Oh well)
We both had a lot of fun
Time to find another one
Blame it all on feeling young
I’m picking out this dress
Trying on these shoes
Cause I’ll be single soon
l’Il be single soon
I know he’ll be a mess
When I break the news
But I’ll be single soon
I’ll be single soon
Ima date who I wanna
Stay out late if I wanna
Ima do what I wanna do
I’m picking out this dress
Trying on these shoes
Cause I’ll be single soon
I’ll be single soon
Yeah, I’ll be single soon
Yeah, l’Il be single soon
Yeah, l’Il be single soon
Yeah, l’Il be single soon
I’m picking out this dress
Trying on these shoes
Cause I’II be single soon
l’Il be single soon
I know he’ll be a mess
When I break the news
But I’II be single soon
I’ll be single soon
Ima date who I wanna
Stay out late if I wanna
Ima do what I wanna do
I’m picking out this dress
Trying on these shoes
Cause I’ll be single soon
