Cee Lo Green's "Forget" You

Argg! Cee Lo Green! Why do you do this to me?

The "you" in his song goes from being the girlfriend stealing friend to the girlfriend herself.

"I see you [the girlfriend stealing guy] driving around town with the girl I love and I’m like,
Forget you [the girlfriend stealing guy] and forget her too! If said if I was richer, Id still be with ya [the girlfriend]."

I thought he was in love with the friend for a while! (Although that could be my yaoi nature kicking in.)
