Love Is A First - The Tragically Hip

I’ve been interpreted and shrunk

I’ve been as touchless as a drunk

This is as bad as or worse, as bad as or worse

This is as bad as or worse, as bad as or worse

Love is a curse, be her world, all it deserves

Love is a curse, get what you cannot desert

I know, I know it’s all just first blurts

That he who would try to own deserves it

And I know it’s got nothing to do with deserves it

Just that you don’t just blurt

Love is a curse, love is a curse, love is a curse

You don’t just blurt, love is a curse

Though I’ve been too weak to escape

And I don’t have the strength to pluck a grape

Though it’s as bad as or worse, as bad as or worse

Though it’s as bad as or worse, as bad as or worse

Love is a first, felt the dull fangs of the truth

Love is a first, their music they torture to

Love is a first, a song would power it first

Love is a first, let’s walk down the darkness’s horse

We were frozen until he saw us

And smoke and murder fell on the floor

And watch the own death of your TV

And dreams are stuck in urgent tweads

Drain the ocean of words

Like God’s representatives on earth

Learn to hurt and how not to hurt

And the thing you taught me and what I learned

Love is a first

And it’s as bad as or worse, love is a first

As bad as or worse, love is a first

As bad as or worse, love is a first

As bad as or worse

Love is a curse, be her world, all it deserves

Love is a first, go where the curtain occurs

Love is a curse, get what you cannot desert

Love is a first, it just occurs and occurs

We were frozen until he saw us

And smoke and murder fell on the floor

And watch the own death of your TV

And dreams are stuck in urgent tweads

Drain the ocean of words

Like God’s representatives on earth

Learn to hurt and how not to hurt

And the thing you taught me and what I learned

Love is a first
