(Youthful male duet. Acoustic + bouncing piano. Sun in the kitchen. Then the map.) [Intro — piano + acoustic] (1) The hill can wait. (2) The hill is waiting. (1) The eggs are louder. [Verse 1] (1) Map on the jam and a compass in the sugar (2) You packed the brave, I packed the butter (1) Adventure’s a door if you open it fast (2) Adventure’s a plate if you want it to last (Both) Sun on the sink Dust in the gold Two stupid plans And breakfast still warm [Pre-Chorus] (2) We could leave now (1) We could be wise (Both) Or we could chew And then we rise [Chorus] Eat first Then we go Eat first That’s the only oath we know If the day wants a quest it can sit in a line Eat first Then we shine [Verse 2] (2) You burned the toast like a tiny dragon (1) You saved the last bite like a tiny bargain (2) That’s friendship (1) That’s science (Both) That’s how a morning Outruns a crisis Porch light still on Shoes by the wrong pair If we miss the dawn We can take the good air [Pre-Chorus] (1) Don’t gulp the sun (2) Don’t skip the sweet (Both) A hero who rushes Forgets to eat [Chorus] Eat first Then we go Eat first That’s the only oath we know If the day wants a quest it can sit in a line Eat first Then we shine [Bridge] (2) What if we’re late? (1) Then we’re late with syrup. (2) What if the world starts? (1) It started. We started it with plates. (Both) If trouble comes knocking It can wipe its feet We’re two on a bench With a morning to beat [Final Chorus] Eat first Then we go Eat first Let the kitchen say so If the hill wants a race it can have the encore Eat first Then the door Eat first Save the last bite Eat first That’s the friendly fight Bags on the chair and the sun in the rhyme Eat first Then we climb [Outro] (2) Okay. I’m done. (1) You’re lying. (Both) Eat first. Then we go.
