My first was Pink Floyd's "Time," which my Dad played for me back in eighth grade (about 5-6 years ago). My Dad was a major source of of prog and rock in general for me early on and introduced me to a ton of bands, and is probably the reason why I have my current preferences for prog, metal, and classic/pop rock.

First prog song is a toughie - first prog albums would be Abbey Road (by the Beatles, a popular but underrated British music combo in the sixties) or Brain Salad Surgery (ELP).
P.S. Love the "My Other Car..." logo, Astral Traveller ;-)

If you don't count the normal Floyd, Kansas, and Rush stuff that even most mainstream music lovers have heard, I would say the first prog song I heard was "Pull Me Under" from DT. It's still a great song, but I don't really have any interest in DT anymore.

i remember that song, i first heard on GH4, which i played to song on, and that basically (with other Guitar Hero and Rock Band games) made me become a classic rock and later on (now) a progressive rock fan as well

I remember hearing 'She's So Heavy' by the Beatles when I was too young to know music could be classified into categories. The only music I had heard before that was late 60's early 70's pop and my ears were blown away by this new sound. I'll always consider that my first prog song, it opened my ears to new sounds.
Not long after that I heard Yes's "Your Move/Seen all Good People" and when I got my first record player bought the album and have been a prog head ever since.

Not sure how your irony works.

My first would be "Glasgow Kiss" by John Petrucci on the G3 dvd. I thought to myself, "My gosh this would be awesome with vocals.."

My first one technically would have been something by Rush because my dad was a huge fan of them.
But the first prog song I listened with the actual intent of getting into prog was The Musical Box, and it's been one of my favorites ever since!

Mullmuzzler - His Voice was the first prog song I actually listened to. Yes, I knew Mullmuzzler before Dream Theater

Iron Butterfly's first album "Heavy" was the probably the first prog or proto-prog album I heard that I recognized as taking a step beyond most of what got played on top 40 radio. One track in particular, Fields of Sun, grabbed my attention like nothing before the first time my older brother played it,  so that could be considered my first. Possession, So-Lo, Stamped Ideas and Iron Butterfly Theme were no slouches either.

The first one I can remember was Liquid Tension Experiment's "Acid Rain" in 2005 (yes, I'm a lightweight).
