1st Things 1st - Phantom Planet

you should get your story straight, before i start to doubt it

cause if you’ve worn your lipstick off i wanna 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

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 dont you draw up a list you have to frequently check?

and put some things in order and lose it in your purse

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

1st things 1st

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
