[Verse 1]
Dressed up to the nines
Dancin' three-quarter time
The champagne is on ice
No one's gonna guess
In your brand new dress
Girl, you sure look nice

[Chorus]
Have a good time
Honey, don't look back
Stone in the middle of the aftermath

[Verse 2]
Don't wink, don't blink
Don't let 'em think
His leavin's got you down
Stand straight, hang tough
When they bring it up
Baby hold your ground

[Chorus]
If they pry, don't sigh
Pass it off with a laugh
It's all part of living through the aftermath
Hey, living through the aftermath (Oh)
[Bridge]
You can do it honey
Keep that smile so sunny
You can show them what they want to see
Yes you can (Oh)

[Verse 3]
It's a cold, hard scene
The singles thing
Losers everywhere
And it hurts to the bone
Headin' home alone
When someone used to be there

[Chorus]
So you take a few falls
And you learn to bounce back
It's all part of living through the aftermath
Yeah, living through the aftermath (Oh)

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
Ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
(Baby don't look back)
Ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
(Don't look back)
Ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
Ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
(Don't look back)
Ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
(Baby don't look back)
Ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
