nothing like the first time

the leaves were falling

i was seventeen

we'd been locking lips

grabbing hips

smoking cigarettes

we took a drive in your 1990

had me down from out of town

i was california

oh

my legs were not shaved

and you had dirt between your fingers

they told us to behave

but hey

it's not like riding a bike

it's not like flying a kite

it's not as easy as pie

there's nothing like the first time

it's not like taking a bath

it's not like having a laugh

it's not like reading a map

there's nothing like the first time

i had seen it in the magazines

we would change the channel on the t.v screen

'cause it's such a sin what ya did to me

straight to hell

is what they sell if you've done the deed

oh

but what could be so bad

oh

if everyone is guilty

i guess we want what we can't have

'cause i've heard

it's not like riding a bike

it's not like flying a kite

it's not as easy as pie

there's nothing like the first time

it's not like taking a bath

it's not like having a laugh

it's not like reading a map

there's nothing like the first time

la la la

la la la

there's nothing like the first time

la la la

la la la

there's nothing like the first time

it's not a walk in the park

it's not a shot in the dark

it's not a juvenile crime

there's nothing like the first time

it's not like tying the knot

there's no connecting the dots

and in case you forgot

there's nothing like the first time

la la la

la la la

there's nothing like the first time

la la la

la la la

there's nothing like the first time

la la la

la la la

there's nothing like the first time

it's not like reading a map

oh yeah

i can give you that

there's nothing like the first time
