joel r.l. phelps & the downer trio - be first! lyrics
brother don’t do what your brother done
by stealing from his shadows
the lightening and the sun
you take it all so hard
so beautiful and strange
and when at last the bell
was you were standing up
brother there’s no need to stare me down
or take me off the window
or off the ropes
i’m bound for glory of a kind
and say it for those who call
i kind of also ran
this you will never be
you wanted to be first
to place a face upon the name
and you wanted to be first
and you were
brother don’t go where your brother’s gone
i shook hands with the k!llers
and sifted all the bones
to see what kind of coward
was bought and bought and sold
and came in underweight
and wasn’t worth the skin that i stole
my brother from accident and error
and poetry of muscle
of broken limbs and care
you took it all so hard
you took it all inside
and left it on the page
but you were standing up
you wanted to be first
not for the father or the fame
and you wanted to be first
and you were
