My baby just left me on Grenadier Boulevard
My first-place finish is the reason why we sparred
He can't accept defeat because his heart is full of envy
Why did I fall for that Artie Shaw wannabe?

For the first time ever, our roles have reversed
I was always second in line and he was always first
I thought he would be happy that his baby won the first chair
The many lessons I learned from him helped get me there

But he can't accept that I beat him on audition day
There's no need to throw a temper tantrum
When things don't go your way
He should get over it
Everyone has hits and misses
Accept the fact that I am the new principal clarinetist

My baby just left me on Grenadier Boulevard
My first-place finish is the reason why we sparred
He can't accept defeat because his heart is full of envy
Why did I fall for that Artie Shaw wannabe?

He quickly grabbed his calendar when he heard the news
He warned
Don't get too comfortable, Mr. Bechet
Next week I'm gonna challenge you
In our face-off, he didn't get what he worked so hard for
Tears streamed down his face after Mr. Wright revealed our scores

After I said "Good job," he put away his R13
And stormed out of the band room
When I found him on Grenadier Boulevard
I asked what's gotten in you
He yelled being 2nd chair isn't a good look
I'm the band sergeant major
I just lost to a clarinetist who doesn't even know Weber

I'm so mad at you right now
I can't even look at your face
I ain't driving to Fountain Hill today
Find another way to get to your place
I said you can't accept defeat
Because your heart is full of envy
Get over yourself, you Artie Shaw wannabe
Stop acting like you're a member of the real Coldstream Guards
Mom, can you come pick me up
I'm on Grenadier Boulevard
