I Loved Annie First Lyrics

Annie was a gangly little kid of 17
When first she saw a movie up on the big screen
Mom & Dad both had to vent their spleen
When Annie told them of her dream
She took the classes and she took all the diets
She learned to cry on cue and learned how to fight
Went to the theatre every Tuesday night
Reciting monologues in the moonlight
But I loved her first
And in my dreams, we kissed again and again
I loved her first
She ignores me now, like she did then
But I loved her first, nyah nyah nyah nyah, called it
Annie's friends were skeptical at best
Seeing her rehearse, they were far from impressed
Even as she went to take her first screen test
They hoped it would make her less self-obsessedHightower Tony - I Loved Annie First - http://motolyrics.com/hightower-tony/i-loved-annie-first-lyrics.html
She got her first part in a travelling play
Away from home, and she preferred it that way
No one else was around to have their say
Not that anyone's complaining today
But I loved her first
And in my dreams, we kissed again and again
I loved her first
She ignores me now, like she did then
But I loved her first, nyah nyah nyah nyah
The parts came & went, & still she slogged on
Till soon the gawky teenager was gone
The duckling disappeared, replaced by a swan
A light toward which so many have since been drawn
I wrote her a letter that I never did mail
And I still buy her videos when they go on sale
And all her so-called friends who were so convinced she'd fail
Come over and try to follow her vapor trail.
