Lisa Loeb – I Wanna Go First lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanna go first, maybe burst into flames
The chute doesn't open or just die on the plane
The way's not important, I just want to explain
I wanna go first and that's all that I'm saying

[Verse 2]
Eaten by zombies or swallowed by sharks
If there's anything left, they can use my good parts
I know it sounds grim, but it's really the truth
'Cause nothing is worse than a life without you

[Chorus]
I don't care if it all comes down
I don't want to be the last one 'round
When it all runs out at the last, last call
'Cause living without you's not living at all

[Verse 3]
Maybe struck by a rainbow out searching for gold
Don't get me wrong, I hope we grow old
But living without you's not living at all
I hope that you know what I mean

[Verse 4]
Trampled by rhinos or crushed by a train
It might sound extreme, but it's really quite sane
If I suffocate slowly, don't call the nurse
'Cause living without you is definitely worse

[Chorus]
I don't care if it all comes down
I don't want to be the last one 'round
When it all runs out at the last, last call
'Cause living without you's not living at all

[Verse 5]
You ask, so I'll tell you the thoughts in my head
Just promise you'll stay despite what I've said
Living without you's not living at all
And if you died first, it would kill me
