Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Verse 4] 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Post-Chorus] 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
