There were girls on boys, there were girls on girls Red heels on a table, in a champagne blur It all gets kinda hazy when your heart's fucked up We were emptying bottles, we were pushing our luck And it turned into the longest night of our whole damn lives Had the wildest times, ooh It all started with girls on boys, girls on girls Red heels on the table and I didn't care It all gets kinda hazy when your heart's fucked up I got high to forget you, I got high real hard It all started with a broken heart It all started with girls on boys It all started with a broken heart No, you wouldn't come home, so I stayed out Hoping I wouldn't see you, with someone in the crowd It was all kinda empty, so I filled it with rum It was stupidly crazy, I was comfortably numb It turned into the longest night of our whole damn lives Had the wildest times, oh It all started with girls on boys, girls on girls Red heels on the table and I didn't care It all gets kinda hazy when your heart's fucked up I got high to forget you, I got high real hard It all started with a broken heart It all started with girls on boys Girls on boys It all started with girls on boys Girls on girls Red heels on the table and I didn't care It all gets kinda hazy when your heart's fucked up I got high to forget you, I got high real hard It all started with a broken heart
