Phantom Planet - 1st Things 1st Lyrics

You should get your story straight, before I start to doubt it
'Cause if you've worn your lipstick off, I want to hear about it
And telling me would be such a breeze, say it if you want to leave
I think I'm getting the drift

You want some time with your friends, on the nights and weekends
You take the time for yourself both of us used to spend
Before you make it better, before you make it worse
First things first

I don't think it's an accident, you treat me like a dummy
Hold on, hold on
Well I've been asking for the truth, at least just tell me something
Hold on, hold on
And telling me would be such a breeze, let me know, don't let me be
It's almost too easy

I'm holding you by the hand, more like the nape of your neck
Why don't you draw up a list you have to frequently check?
And put some things in order and lose it in your purse
First things first

I'm holding you by the hand, more like the nape of your neck
Well what your trouble is, you have to frequently check
And put some things in order and lose it in your purse
First things first

You spend all that time with your friends on every night and weekend
You take the time for yourself both of us used to spend
Before you make it better, before you make it worse

First things
First things
First things
First things first
