The First

Tegan & Sara

Stand up sit down, baby

Gonna be a formal dressdown hey day

We decide why not go downtown

How about you and me we go get wasted



You'll have, you'll have to excuse me

Please please, please excuse me

You'll have, you'll have to excuse me

This will be my first time



By definition from grade school to english 30

We quickly become strong so early

Take it or leave it they can't believe it

They go from kindergarden to killing sprees

They go heartache to inner peace

100 foot ceilings 100 percent deceit

He sais let's leave this between you and me



My cats watch my stuff leve my house

Between you and me the cat burglars are

What did you see what did you steal

Tell me baby how does it feel

Yeah how do you feel



It's a top ten list of things

That move me the most

It's a top ten list of things

That bother me the most

A top ten list of things

That scare me the most

I'd have to say that the future



Wasting time in the fast food line

I decide to walk the fine line

And celebrate life celebrate death

I choose to celebrate the first

I celebrate the first



We decide to go out walking

The whole time that you're talking

Convinced that we're living

Whole time that we're dying



We decide to go out walking

The whole time that we're talking

Convinced that you're living

The whole time that I'm dying



Keeps me on my toes

Where did the time go

You keep me on my toes

Where did the time go



On the edge of town

Where the gravel's thin

They're gonna wear you down

Until you're thin and tired, tired, tired



Of wasting time in the fast food line

I decide to walk the fine line and

Celebrate life celebrate death

I choose to celebrate



The first to come the first to go

The first to say yes

First to say no
