This is the first night
Of the rest of our lives
I can't help wonder
"How is it we're still alive?"
Welcome to the first night of the rest of our lives
Oh, yeah, and I said
Welcome to the first night of the rest of our lives
We stayed up all night long
Laughing, singing in the streets, oh, yeah, you know
The Clash, Ramones, The Pogues, our voices hoarse
Our bodies weak and ready for sleep
Lean against me, wipe your bloodshot eyes as I wipe mine
And from these rooftops, we'll watch the sun rise
Ain't this the life? Yeah it's the first night
Of the rest of our lives
I can't help wonder
"How is it we're still alive?"
Welcome to the first night of the rest of our lives
With just a half tank of gas, 150 miles to go, no cash, no food
We turned the engine off, every time that we went down hill
And it's on with the show
I don't know whether to laugh or cry?
Oh, no, I don't
All I know is that I am alive, I'm really alive
And it's the first night of the rest of our lives
I can't help wonder
"How is it we're still alive?"
Welcome to the first night of the rest of our lives
Oh, yeah, and I said
Welcome to the first night of the rest of our lives
We heard "You there!" and jumped from the train
Ran up the tracks, all the while you screaming back
"Kiss my ass!"
We're living our lives, I'm livin' and yeah
I'm doin' fine
Oh yeah, oh yeah, I'm doing fine!
And it's the first night of the rest of our lives
I can't help wonder
"How is it we're still alive?"
Oh, welcome to the first night of the rest
Let's hope this night of nights won't be our last
Yeah!
Welcome to the first night of the rest of our lives
Oh, goodbye
