lyrics

One pan on the gas

One bowl on the tile

Garlic in the oil

I stand there and smile

Rice in the rice cooker

Steam on the glass

Old boxes by the door

I’m finally past

Chop the green onion thin

Hear the knife go tap

Window cracked open wide

Bangkok in the gap

I lay down my plate

Two cups by the sink

This room is mine now

That’s what I think

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)

Egg in the same pan

Brown at the edge

Chili on the spoon

And a spoon on the ledge

A metal fan turns slow

Pushes damp air round

My shirt on the chair back

No other sound

Packed tape on the carton

Beneath the fridge light

I eat from my own hand

At nine tonight

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)

I burnt one corner

I ate it anyway

Sticky rice on my wrist

Still tasted okay

Key in the dish tray

Shoes by the mat

Small flat, new name

I can live with that

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)

First meal, first meal (first meal)
