Superchunk - The First Part Lyrics






So this is the first part
We're drunk in the selfless relentless caresses
How long must the first part last
Before we make our respective messes?

With all the clocks wound down
With all the clocks wound down
And all the doors thrown open

One good minute could last me a whole year
One good minute will last me a whole year
Well it's a delicate line
We draw it in pink
We draw it in white
So take your time with it
Yeah take your time

I have remembered these things before
Whispered phrases and emotions
I have remembered these things before
Whispered phrases and emotions

And I know that they will only
I know that they will only haunt me

One good minute could last me a whole year
One good minute will last me a whole year
Well it's a delicate line
We draw it in pink
We draw it in white
So take your time with it
Yeah take your time

  1. p.... c....

    Great song.

  2. H.... M....

    classy track from a classy band

  3. T.... M....

    25 years ago ...dayum.

  4. j.... s....

    I was a metal kid that sometimes watched 120 minutes in the 90's, and this song
    would always come on & blow my mind.
    I'd wait for that opening drum part, because they'd play it every Sunday.

  5. J.... W....

    I like how they took the belly record off to the breeders and tried to like it.Breeders are horrible Belly was Tanya's best work and is still going with the Dove album...

  6. I.... O....

    essa música

  7. E.... K....

    Pleased to have pyjamas a lot like Jon Wurster's.

  8. y.... K....

    y.... K....

    October 4th at 7pm Charity Event

    They we're actually better on this album than any album that came after. In my opinion their sound has kind of devolved since. I feel like this sound must have inspired so many other indie rock bands like Jimmy Eat World, Sunny Day Real Estate, Death Cab for Cutie, the Getup Kids, etc.

  10. B.... B....

    Laura kickin' some butt!

  11. E.... C....

    I bought this cd at Deaf Ear Records, in LaCrosse, WI in 1995. I was looking for 'On the Mouth', but they didn't have it. Around the same time I discovered other great indie bands such as Jawbox, Archers of Loaf, The Raymond Brake, Meices, The Dismemberment Plan, Seaweed, and Shiner. To this day, I still listen to the same bands I loved almost 25 years ago. Great music stands the test of time.

  12. G.... ....

    why does this sound so much like a the cure song

  13. D.... ....

    Why is John Wurster having a sleepover with 15 year old girls?

    D.... ....

    To console him for the loss of his burrow owl.

    D.... ....

    He came in through the window

  14. C.... T....

    I just discovered this band, holy shit!!!

  15. C.... C....

    I loved this video and used to wait for it on 120 Minutes.

  16. L.... J....

    What saddens me is horseshit bands like Greenday cash in on being "PUNK ROCK, all the while Superchunk who towers over them talent wise toils in relative obscurity. Wake the fuck up people!

  17. N.... M....

    You can see NC in any Superchunk video - really nice.

  18. L.... P....

    SUPER CHUNK É MUITO AFUDEEE

  19. E.... T....

    this song and vid bring me back great memories

  20. C.... O....

    2017 Brazil Superchunk!!

  21. N.... M....

    love the song. Can't find any band like them in 2017....

    N.... M....

    Vundabar

  22. T.... S....

    Chapel Hill 1994!

    T.... S....

    Totally... I remember this video. Raleigh/Chapel Hill really had it going back then: Superchunk, Polvo, Archers of Loaf, etc. I imagine they still have a great scene, but I couldn't name any bands today.

    T.... S....

    @Dave Lampton It's all generic, pretentious indie pop now. Indie rock doesn't rock at all anymore sadly.

  23. B.... B....

    Edited ending. Bummer.

    B.... B....

    Agreed but a blast to rediscover quickly here(YT)
    .......gonna grab a DL now :)

  24. o.... d....

    Gran canción.

  25. F.... L....

    this is very good, great song!

  26. m.... b....

    Mac and the gang, seems like they have been putting out music for my enjoyment for the last two decades and Funny how there's so few who appreciate how good they are!

    m.... b....

    It is a mystery, but then again it might explain what has happened in the US in the past 5 or so years ! There's no accounting for taste !

  27. i.... ....

    one of my favorites.  I wanna go back...

  28. C.... G....

    Too cool. Always return to SC

  29. t.... ....

    Great song! Such a great video!

  30. r.... ....

    "One good minute could last me a whole year."

    r.... ....

    One good song lyric could last me a lifetime, and so far this one has.

    r.... ....

    That statement is so true.All the devil needs is a second really.

  31. M.... F....

    I love dance records like this but they never give them a chance in the nighclubs; they always play that same old Top 40 S-H-I-T.

  32. e.... ....

    Why is it that in the 80's I was a decade or two behind in my love of music...and now again, I'm back to being a decade or so behind? Am I really that old or does music just suck that much these days?

  33. B.... T....

    anthem, indeed!

  34. l.... ....

    banda muito legal, pena que perdi o show

  35. M.... S....

    Superchunk had it going on.

  36. s.... ....

    Aaaand i'm back yet again, go merge records!

  37. s.... ....

    its a very thick plot mate...

  38. C.... H....

    Whats the plot of this video?

  39. L.... ....

    ftw lol sleepovers n milk and cookies!

  40. E.... ....

    @thatRUGA Missing the point much?

  41. R.... A....

    698 views??? can't believe it! this is an anthem!

  42. Z.... ....

    hehe, that baby in the beginning is probably in college....

    Z.... ....

    That baby has likely moved on to The Workforce now. Poor thing. ;^)
