First Born[00:00:00]

The silver spoon's in the mouth[00:00:01]

Baby clothes are baby-blue[00:00:04]

Nothing's ever handed down[00:00:10]

Everything's brand new[00:00:13]

Newspaper notices heralding that great event[00:00:20]

Daddy's buddies send the flowers[00:00:31]

Mother's friends have baby showers[00:00:34]

Welcoming that Heaven sent[00:00:37]

That first born son is always the one[00:00:43]

The first to be called and the last to come[00:00:49]

He's his mother's favorite [00:00:55]

His grandmother's too[00:00:58]

He'll break their hearts and he'll break yours too[00:01:01]

For he's the first to creep and the first to crawl[00:01:06]

The first to walk and the first to fall[00:01:12]

Every bruise is kissed [00:01:17]

Every cry is heard[00:01:20]

Every doubt's cast out with a soothing word[00:01:23]

'Cause he's that first born son [00:01:28]

He's that special one[00:01:31]

No matter what comes next [00:01:33]

No matter what comes along[00:01:36]

Be it another boy or a sweet baby girl[00:01:39]

The family's the oyster and he is the pearl[00:01:45]

Some of them make it [00:02:31]

Some of them don't[00:02:34]

Some of them can't [00:02:37]

Others won't grow up[00:02:39]

In the bible of old [00:02:57]

According to Exodus[00:02:59]

Every first born son of a Jew got axed[00:03:02]

But the one who survived with the help of God's hand[00:03:08]

Led his people to the promised land[00:03:13]

Yes he's that first born son [00:03:17]

He's that son of a gun[00:03:20]

Just hates to walk [00:03:23]

Just loves to run[00:03:25]

He loves to run as fast as he can[00:03:28]

With life held tight in the palm of his hand[00:03:33]
