C. DeVille and others. The song has been used in promotion of Shrek the Third. This is the third instance of a Smash Mouth song being used in some fashion for the Shrek film series.

I get to the party, but I'm too late
And I got stood up on my very first date 
I listen to country and everybody goes rock 
I get to the dance floor, that's when the music stops 

It doesn't matter what I do, I just can't seem to win 
But here I go again

[Chorus]
And I say, "Hey, that's the story of my life 
I had a good plan but it didn't go right 
Oh no, I'm overdrawn, 
I check my account and the money's all gone 
Why me? I don't know what to think, 
I finally get aboard and the whole boat sinks 
Seems to be the story of my life 

I pick a slot machine and lose it all again 
But when I walk away, someone else always wins 
She finally calls me, I forget my phone
And when I'm starving, you know the kitchen's closed

It doesn't matter what I try, it all ends up the same 
And here I go again

[Chorus]

Just when it seems like it's turnin' around for me 
There's always something that ends up happening 
I found my car, but I can't find my keys 

I get to the party a little too late 
And once again the music starts to play

[Chorus]

The story of my life
The story of my life
That's the story of my life 
That's the story of my life
