I Was the One Who Wrote It First Lyrics by Lilla Crawford

2018

[WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE]
Well, I coined a phrase every two or three days
Back when I was writing all my plays
Made it all up as I went along
Too much to fit in just one song
But I'll try
'Cause I made up
"Brave new world" and "puppy dog", "as merry as the day is long"
"Wild goose chase", "bated breath", "one fell swoop" and "bump" and "dawn"
"Kill with kindness", "break the ice"
Both from Taming of the Shrew
Hamlet chipped in "heart of hearts"
And "to thine own self be true"
[Chorus]
Look it all up in prose or verse
I was the one who wrote it first
I made up "gossip", "swaggеr", and "lie low"
And "as pure as the drivеn snow"
"As luck would have it", "heart of gold"
"Eat me out of house and home"
"Quarrelsome" and "strange bedfellows"
"Cold-blooded" and "fancy-free"
"Good riddance" and "cruel to be kind"
"Bloodstained" and "it's all Greek to me"
[Chorus]
Look it all up in prose or verse
I was the one who wrote it first
