Lyrics:

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
Have a good time, honey, don't look back
Stone in the middle of the aftermath
Don't wink, don't blink, don't let him think
His leaving got you down
Stand straight, hang tough, when they bring it up
Baby, hold your ground
If they pry, don't sigh, pass it off with a laugh
It's all part of living through the aftermath
Living through the aftermath
You can do it, honey
Keep that smile so sunny
You can show them what they want to see
Yes, you can

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
So you take a few falls and you learn to bounce back
It's all part of living through the aftermath
Living through the aftermath

Ooh-ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath, living through the aftermath
Ooh-ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath, living through the aftermath
Baby, don't look back
Ooh-ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath, living through the aftermath
Don't look back
Ooh-ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath, living through the aftermath
Ooh-ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath, living through the aftermath
Don't look back
Ooh-ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath, living through the aftermath
Baby, don't look back
Ooh-ooh, ooh, it's the aftermath, living through the aftermath
