Lyrics[]
Mes amis m'ont tous abandonnés
Car j'ai allé dans la manie, un orteil
Donc j'ai trouvé un garçon pour aimer
Il était faux
Il avait un que j'étais vraiment en amour
Et l'autre, un petit peu
Je croyais être avec eux pour toujours
Mais ils ont trichés, tant mieux!
Dis-moi, maman
Si l'amour nous rend heureux
Donc pourquoi
Ça nous gâche la vie tous les deux
So I guess this is unhappy ever after
I didn't get saved from the tower
Prince Charming didn't come and wake me
From the sleeping spell
Oh, how things have gone to hell
Screw fairytales
My prince will never come
Welcome to my unhappy ever after
Welcome to
Welcome to my unhappy ever after
Dis moi, dis moi
Pourquoi tu m'écoute pas
Je suis juste une fille
Qui veut ressentir la joie de l'amour
Dis-moi, maman
Si l'amour nous rend heureux
Donc pourquoi
Ça nous gâche la vie tous les deux
So I guess this is unhappy ever after
I didn't get saved from the tower
Prince Charming didn't come and wake me
From the sleeping spell
Oh, how things have gone to hell
Screw fairytales
My prince will never come
Welcome to my unhappy ever after
Welcome to
Welcome to my unhappy ever after
Oh, I didn't get saved from the tower
Wasn't awoken from my slumber
Only beasts want beauties like me
Oh oh, screw fairytales
So I guess this is unhappy ever after
I didn't get saved from the tower
Prince Charming didn't come and wake me
From the sleeping spell
Oh, how things have gone to hell
Screw fairytales
My prince will never come
Welcome to my unhappy ever after
Welcome to
Welcome to my unhappy ever after
Welcome to
Welcome to my unhappy ever after
Music Video[]
The music video shows recreations of "the rape scene" from Prince Charming, the scene where Sophia catches Finn cheating in Does a Boy Love You, and the scene where Sophia finds Mall Boy making out in the bathroom with another girl in Latido del Corazón. Sophia takes pictures of her three former lovers and burns them in the fireplace at Cry Baby's house.
