Lyrics
Friday night, think I might go out with my best girlfriends
Expressing the intention to spend Friday night with best girlfriends.
But not to keep myself from sitting home and wondering where you've been
Clarifying the motive is not to avoid loneliness but to not wonder about the ex-partner's whereabouts.
Probably get to know the bartender better than I should
Anticipating getting to know the bartender well during the night out.
But don't go thinkin'
Warning against misconceptions about the intention behind drinking.
That I'm drinkin' for any other reason than 'cause I'm feeling good
Drinking is a result of feeling good, not related to the past relationship.
I'm not blowing up your phone
Not obsessively contacting the ex-partner.
I don't care if you're alone or if you're with someone new
Expressing indifference to the ex-partner's current status or relationships.
I'm just here to unwind
Being at the bar to relax and unwind.
Let myself have a good time after all the hell you put me through
Allowing oneself to have a good time after overcoming the difficulties caused by the ex-partner.
I might have a broken heart
Acknowledging a broken heart but not letting it dictate actions.
That ain't why I'm in this bar ordering a beer or two
Being in the bar for personal enjoyment, not solely due to heartbreak.
Since we broke up baby I've got better things to do than keep tabs on you
Having moved on and having better priorities than keeping tabs on the ex-partner.
I was such a mess always obsessing 'bout your every move
Reflecting on past behavior of obsessing over the ex-partner's actions.
Should've listened to that gut feeling that I couldn't trust you
Regretting not trusting instincts about the ex-partner's trustworthiness.
Gave it too many shots and wasted a lot of time
Admitting to wasting time on the relationship.
But I'm moving on from the past
Choosing to move on from the past.
I might be raising a glass but I ain't chasing you tonight
Raising a glass in celebration without pursuing the ex-partner.
I'm not blowing up your phone
Reiterating the lack of interest in the ex-partner's current situation.
I don't care if you're alone or if you're with someone new
Being at the bar for personal relaxation, not for monitoring the ex-partner.
I'm just here to unwind
Intending to have a good time after overcoming difficulties with the ex-partner.
Let myself have a good time after all the hell you put me through
Reaffirming the focus on personal enjoyment, not on the ex-partner.
I might have a broken heart
Acknowledging a broken heart but not letting it control actions.
That ain't why I'm in this bar sippin' on some Malibu
Being at the bar, enjoying Malibu, and not keeping tabs on the ex-partner.
Since we broke up baby I've got better things to do than keep tabs on you
Having better priorities than obsessing over the ex-partner.
Not keeping tabs on you
Emphasizing the lack of interest in monitoring the ex-partner.
If you think you're the only one who knows how to light me up like a neon sign
Challenging the ex-partner's belief that they are the only one who can bring excitement.
Then boy you must be drunk, 'cause if not then you're just out of your mind
Questioning the ex-partner's sobriety or sanity if they think they are the only one.
I'm not blowing up your phone
Reiterating the lack of obsessive contact with the ex-partner.
I don't care if you're with someone new
Indicating a lack of concern for the ex-partner's new relationships.
I'm just here to unwind
Being at the bar for personal relaxation, not for monitoring the ex-partner.
Let myself have a good time after all the hell you put me through
Intending to have a good time after overcoming difficulties with the ex-partner.
I might have a broken heart
Acknowledging a broken heart but not letting it control actions.
That ain't why I'm in this bar takin' shots of 80 proof
Being at the bar, taking shots, and not obsessing over the ex-partner.
Since we broke up baby, I've got better things to do
Having better priorities than obsessing over the ex-partner after the breakup.
Yeah, since we broke up baby
Reaffirming the focus on personal enjoyment, not on the ex-partner.
I've got better things to do than keep tabs on you
Having moved on and having better priorities than keeping tabs on the ex-partner.
Yeah
Repeating the lack of interest in monitoring the ex-partner.
Not keeping tabs on you, you, you, you, you
Stating the commitment to not keeping tabs on the ex-partner.
Boy I've got
Reaffirming the existence of better things to focus on than the ex-partner.
I've got better things to do
Emphasizing having better priorities and not keeping tabs on the ex-partner.
