Pretty Funny takes place in the moment Rose finds her way to her room, finally alone, and lets out all her feelings. She is heartbroken, humiliated, and disillusioned. The song also contrasts the excited atmosphere and expectation of the previous “Nothing short of wonderful”.
Rose, played by actor...
[ROSE]
Close the window, draw the curtain
Hide the bright light of the moon
Hang the dresses, ugly dresses
No one likes maroon
Wipe off all that stupid lipstick
Return the earrings to their case
Make-up won't make any difference
It's still the same old face
Isn't it funny?
Isn't it funny?
Isn't it funny you believed that it was real?
Pretty funny
All disasters have an upside
You can find one if you try
You went dancing, you were dancing
You were dancing with a guy
Isn't it funny?
Isn't it funny?
Aren't you funny?
Pathetically naive and desperate to believe
You can always find some good
Well you misunderstood
Or you've been dreaming
'Cause people are just cruel
Shut the light off, turn the bed down
No more crying, don't you dare
You'll wake up sometime tomorrow
And forget to even care
Isn't it funny?
Isn't it funny?
For a moment he convinced me I could be pretty... funny
