Tegan - The First lyrics

Stand up, sit down baby Gonna be a formal dress down, 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 quietly become strong so early Take it or leave it They can't believe it They go from kindergarten to k**ing sprees They go from heartache to inner peace 100 foot ceilings, 100 percent deceit He said, let's leave this between you and me My cats watch my stuff, leave 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, yeah feel It's a top ten list of things that move me the most A top ten list of things that bother me 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 d**h I choose to celebrate the first I celebrate the first We decide to go out walking The whole time that we're talking Convinced that we're living Whole time that we're dying We decide to go out walking Whole time that you're talking Convinced that you're living 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 d**h I choose to celebrate The first to come, the first to go The first to say yes, the first to say no I'm gonna seize this moment The first to come, the first to go The first to say yes, the first to say no We decide to go out walking The whole time that we're talking Convinced that we're living Whole time that we're dying Keeps me on my toes, where did the time go? Keeps me on my toes where did the time go? Keeps me on my toes where did the time go? You keep me on my toes You keep me on my toes
