Lyrics
He was one of three bright little boys
Had a mom who was blond and was pretty as can be
She was kind, she was sweet - married a man
Who married the military
Early on, things were smooth, but later they would move
Differernt streets, different houses, different little ones
Who would taunt him until he ran home in tears
Where he soon forgave them.
He arrives at the gate, the guards let him in
Always fashionably late, with so many waiting for him
Smoothly slides into any group - any conversation
He is liked for the way he makes them laugh, though he's never, never loved
He is just their entertainment
So, he'll stay for the drinks, and the big boys he will meet
He calls it an investment
You could say that he had not many friends
As a child, some were cruel, still he joined them anyway
They would laugh and make jokes, tell him he was dumb;
Call his dad a nigger
Later on, he would cry the same damn fantasy
Where he stands, then he sits in a long white hall
Wearing white, he would raise his arm up to head
Then he'd pull the trigger
He's the life of the party
Makes everybody happy
He's the life of the party
But he feels alone
He's the life of the party
Yeah, he knows how to make you happy
He's the life of the party
But he goes home alone
He always goes home alone
