It's A Go (song)

Additional Information
Song meaning as told by Jon: "It's just a get-up-and-go song. That song is inspired from our stops on the way to and from Auckland when we're on tour. We stop at this place called Bully Point in Taupo and it's a song about me standing on this rock that I stand on every fucking time. I sit there and shiver my balls off before I dive into the water, while everyone else has jumped in. It's talking about that feeling, wishing I didn't stand there for ages before diving in, and then realising that it's actually really nice and really good. That's what inspired the song, it's not about that situation particularly, it's an anti-procrastination song, just doing things and going for it". Rip It Up, Oct. 1996

Lyrics
No time like the first time Guess it's a go Bite down Before it all goes up in smoke When you don't know How it's gonna feel When it finally hits all too real There's no time like the first time That's no joke

Don't want to talk about it No need to think about it Just step on up to the edge Then move on

Because you get nowhere With that caution flashing in your head Toss and turn It got you wrapped up safely in bed If you don't know how it's going to feel You got a life with the truth that's concealed Take a dive in to unknown See who floats
