My First Earthquake
Dance rock / electro, but with real instruments, a full band and lots of boy-girl harmonies. Songs about zombies, soup, sprinkler systems, cross-dressing boyfriends — the usual. Four-piece band based in San Francisco, formed in 2006.

Cool in the Cool Way
My First Earthquake Lyrics
I got a problem that I don't so easily admit
when it comes to going downstairs and making it quick
there's a fight between my feet and the floor
slow stepping settles the score
I can't be compared
without mentioning old ladies
I can't be compared
without mentioning old ladies holding babies
Had a fantasy about dark socks
Had a cup of tea, thought earl grey rocks
All of this leads me here to say
I'm not cool enough in the cool way.
Just around the time that the slap bracelet trend ended
Found out I had amended
My own list of phobias
I got a textbook version from my forearms to fists
That's right, I can't look at my wrists
I can not look at yours either
If I do, my facial color leaves
So have some courtesy and keep it in your sleeve
Had a fantasy about dark socks
Had a cup of tea, thought earl grey rocks
All of this leads me here to say
I'm not cool enough in the cool way.
Am I a dork? I have a robot name (x3)
Like I care. Call me it just the same.
Am I a dork? I have a robot name (x3)
Like I care. Call me it just the same.
Had a fantasy about dark socks
Had a cup of tea, thought earl grey rocks
All of this leads me here to say
I'm not cool enough in the cool way.
