lyrics

I don't want to hear about the people you kissed
Or how you didn't know their name when you met in a
Shitty bar on 46
Sometimes I wish you'd forget

The Dead were better in 76
Red Bull's better with some vodka in it
You break my heart with your stories about your ex
They make me wonder if you really loved him the best

And now I'm green with envy
Green with envy
Can't believe he got to touch your body
And you shouldn't regret it
And I can't hold it against you
But I don't want you to tell me
I don't want you to tell me

I thought this was our spot - it could never be
Green light brings back old memories
But I still hang on every word you're telling me

I don't want to think of other people you loved
And all their pictures still under your bed - if you
Hate them now it still isn't enough
Sometimes I wish they were dead

The Cure sound better on old cassettes
Red Bull's better with some vodka in it
You drop his name - make me want to kill him myself
Because everyone you've been with has a place in hell

And now I'm green with envy
Green with envy
Can't believe he got to touch your body
And you shouldn't regret it
And I can't hold it against you
But I don't want you to tell me
I don't want you to tell me

I thought this was our spot - it could never be
Green light brings back old memories
But I still hang on every word you're telling me

I thought you were mine - but you could never be
If you think of old flames when you're out with me
Try my best but I can't hide my jealousy

Sipping red bull vodka in the green bar
I wish we met as kids long long ago
Red rings shining on your fingers
I wish I was the only love you'd ever know

I thought this was our spot - it could never be
Green light brings back old memories
But I still hang on every word you're telling me

I thought you were mine - but you could never be
If you think of old flames when you're out with me
Try my best but I can't hide my jealousy
