First Time for Everything The first time I tried to brush my teeth all by myself I got more toothpaste in my hair than in my mouth My mommy said that's OK With a little practice, you'll get better every day (CHORUS) Life is a funny kind of thing And there's a first time for everything The first time I tried to eat my lunch with a fork It seemed I didn't get too much food in my tummy for all of that work My daddy said that's OK With a little practice you'll get better every day (CHORUS) Once upon a time I used to be so small Just a little baby, couldn't do much then, but maybe Every day I'm learning something new after all Sometimes it's hard being a kid But when you do something you can say 'Hey, look what I did!' (CHORUS) The first time I had a sleepover at my friend's house He stole all the blankets and he kicked me in the mouth But when we got up the next day, all we wanted to do was go out and play (CHORUS) << back
