Colleen (I Saw Him First)

Lyrics

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 once let me watch her make love
 It was the kind of balance made by kings
 She took it all, but left me some
 I guess I always thought she'd have my back
 But it didn't work out like that
 The moment I laid eyes on Jack
 CHORUS
 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
 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
 CHORUS
 The minute that your in it
 You know there's no turning back
 Like me and my Jack
 A funny thing
 To feel the weight of the pendulum swing
 When it starts to swing
 Colleen armed with charm and body
 Still couldn't take away my man
 Last I heard, She was in rehab
 I guess that scale got outta hand
 Covered from head to toe in colored tatoos
 Searching for higher views
 Hungry for I love you's
 CHORUS
 Colleen I saw him first
