lyrics

Coffee in the morning out of a thermos on the bus
And another one at midday in the break-room with my boss
And another one in the afternoon, but that one gave me pause
It used to do the trick, but now it seems like nothing does

Your glass of wine at suppertime is well within the laws
But you smoked a joint and you still don’t feel like you have had enough
Are you wondering why you can’t get high have you tied that stuff
what you need is a first time buzz

That first time around
Wanna get high, don’t wanna come down
Thinking about my first time because
There’s nothing like the first time was

So, I found a rollercoaster it was the fastest in the land
And the first time around was a hell of a ride and the second not too bad
But the third and the forth and the fifth and the sixth it’s all just run of the mill
What I really need is a first time thrill

Ho-hum, ho-hum, life is so mundane
Ho-hum, ho-hum, nothing ever changes
Ho-hum, ho-hum, everything just stays the same
Ho-hum, ho-hum, I’m breaking away from the commonplace

And now I’m moving on to something I haven’t tried before
And I might be on the ceiling or crawling down on the floor
But I’ll take my chance with the consequence you know I’ll follow thru
Until I find something that’s new

That first time around
Wanna get high, don’t wanna come down
Thinking about my first time because
There’s nothing like the first time was

That first time around
Wanna get high, don’t wanna come down
Thinking about my first time because
There’s nothing like the first time was
There’s nothing like the first time was
There’s nothing like the first time…
Nothing like the first time.
