Katie Costello - Congratulations lyrics

The boy in the gown today became a man His future's oh-so-bright, at least it looks like The pretty girl holds her picture in hand Gives it to the man as she recites her lines Why does there exist a need to be somebody do something Whose origins are from that box we all know too well? What I need is to be okay with being nobody knowing it'd be alright What made us think that being happy came from a piece of paper that said Congratulations, Congratulations The man in the green wears a name tag Out of fear they'll mispronounce "Larry" The woman in the fur coat wears her lipstick strong Mascara stained eyes hidden Why does there exist a need to be somebody do something Whose origins are from that box we all know too well? What I need is to be okay with being nobody knowing it'd be alright What made us think that being happy came from a piece of paper that said Congratulations, Congratulations Being happy doesn't mean being somebody Take away the impulse to have our portrait framed Might as well just sign me up for a fancy tomb With my name engraved, my name engraved What I need is to be okay with being nobody knowing it'd be alright What made us think that being happy came from a piece of paper that said Congratulations, Congratulations What I need is to be okay with being nobody knowing it'd be alright What made us think that being happy came from a piece of paper that said Congratulations, Congratulations
