Songtext zu 'I Raised Your Boyfriend' von LOVA

I think
Maybe you are my Jolene
Tell me
Does he ever speak of me?
Yeah, you should be thanking me
This dude's got a history

Yeah, I'm sure
Everything about you is great
But it hurts
Watching as you take my place
Yeah, you're living out my dreams
It's you when it should be me

I see he brought you flowers
The ones that he can't name
Looks like finally he lost his fear of PDA
You should've seen him last year
Now that's a different man
So here is to your future 'cause I took care of the past

I raised your boyfriend
Your pretty little, pretty little boyfriend
Your perfect little, perfect little boyfriend
I raised the guy you see before you
He left me in the dirt
Where's my prize and my diploma?
Where's the credit for my work?
I raised your boyfriend

I got
Nothing but some lazy dates
A front row ticket to his mental state
Yeah, two years of misery
While you got the best of him

I don't mean to be bitter, bitter, bitter
But I've been crying rivers, rivers, rivers
Hate to think you're better suited
And my role was just to play cupid

So he brought you flowers
And booked a trip to Spain
Now you're talking house and kids
Well that's just fucking great
You should've seen him last year
Now that's a different man
So here is to your future 'cause I took care of the past

I raised your boyfriend
Your pretty little, pretty little boyfriend
Your perfect little, perfect little boyfriend
I raised the guy you see before you
He left me in the dirt
Where's my prize and my diploma?
Where's the credit for my work?
I raised your boyfriend

Pretty little boyfriend

I don't mean to be bitter, bitter, bitter
But I've been crying rivers, rivers, rivers
Yeah, you should've seen me last year
I gave it all I had
So here is to your future 'cause I took care of the past
I raised your boyfriend
