 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 are bodies  weak,
 And ready for sleep!!!
Lean  against me, wipe your blood shot eyes,  as I wipe mine.
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.
 hold  hold  hold
 With just half tank of gas, 150 miles to go. No cash, no food.
 hold  hold  hold
 We turn the engine off, every time we go down hill.
   hold
 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  are 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 track, all  the while you're screaming back,
"Kiss  my ass!!!" We're living  our lives, I'm livin'  yeah.
 And I'm doin fine,  oh yeah, oh yeah I'm doin fine.
 And it's the first  night, of the rest of our lives.
 I can't  help wonder,  "How is it we  are still alive?"
Welcome  to the first night of the rest.
Let's  hope this night of life  won't be our last.
 Yeah, welcome  to the first night of the rest  our lives.
 Oooh, good bye.
