Where is your phone when you need it the most
You need an excuse but you panic and choke
And usually your mind just draws a blank
Initial excitement's gone away
And reality hits you so hard

You're standin in line to get tix to the show
You're faking a smile thinkin' torture is slow
Its obvious that you met online
You're fallin asleep in record time
And reality hits you so hard

Cause you had a blind date
You took her down town
Saw someone you know now you're turnin' around
You say she looks good
You just gotta lie
You hand her a five for a soda and fries
You had a blind date
Her web profile lied
You gotta back down but you really don't mind
You had a blind date
You had a blind date

And people seem to cast stares your way
They point and they laugh and what they say
Is reality hitting you hard

You had a blind date
You took her down town
Saw someone you know now you're turnin' around
You say she looks good
You just gotta lie
You hand her a five for a soda and fries
You had a blind date
Her web profile lied
You gotta back down but you really don't mind
You had a blind date
You had a blind date

Sometimes your judgement goes on the blink
And your standards turn up lost
You can't just take it back and you know
That you just gotta suck up the cost
And that's not all

So where is the contingency plan you rehearsed
Oh her and I
You stayed overnight and she called you "her first"

You had a blind date
You took her down town
Saw someone you know now you're turnin' around
You say she looks good
You just gotta lie
You hand her a five for a soda and fries
You had a blind date
You're free Friday night
As bad as you feel what's one more time?
You had a blind date
You had a blind date
