Let me tell you about Colleen
|
My best friend since I was three
|
She always had a taste for dangerous things
|
Her scandalous tongue was extreme
|
I was always the one left holding the bag
|
Smiling and covering her tracks
|
Best friends, they always do that
|
|
She was the first to smoke a cigarette (she was the first)
|
She once let me watch her make love (woah woah yeah)
|
It was the kind of balance made by kings
|
She took it all, but left me some
|
|
I guess I'd always thought she'd have my back
|
But it didn't work out like that (no, no, no)
|
The moment I laid eyes on Jack
|
|
It was my time it was my space
|
It was the bright red he brought to my face
|
Every underdog has their day
|
Sorry it hurts
|
But Colleen, I saw him first
|
|
It all happened on a Thursday (Thursday)
|
He backed his car right into mine (crash, boom, bang)
|
"There are no accidents", my mother told me once
|
My heart agreed with her this time
|
|
Colleen jumped out of the car, screaming
|
"What have you done?!"
|
Jack offered apologies
|
I just got weak in the knees
|
|
It was my time it was my space
|
It was the bright red he brought to my face
|
Every underdog has their day
|
Sorry it hurts
|
But Colleen, I saw him first
|
|
The minute that you're in it
|
You know there's no turning back (turning back)
|
Like me and my Jack (me and Jack)
|
A funny thing
|
To feel the weight of the pendulum swing
|
When it starts to swing (love changes things)
|
|
Colleen, armed with charm and body
|
Still couldn't take away my man
|
Last I heard, she was in rehab
|
I guess that skill got out of hand
|
|
C-c-c-c..Covered from head to toe in coloured tattoos
|
Searching for higher views
|
Hungry for I love you's
|
|
It was my time it was my space
|
It was the bright red he brought to my face
|
Every underdog has their day
|
Sorry it hurts
|
But Colleen, I saw him first
|
Colleen, I saw him first
|
