One Little Slip

One Little Slip - Barenaked Ladies (裸體淑女合唱團)

Written by：Ed Robertson/Steven Page

It was a recipe for disaster

A four course meal of no sirree

It seemed that happily ever after

Was happy everyone was after me

It was a cup of good intentions

A tablespoon of one big mess

A dash of over reaction

I assume you know the rest

One little slip

One little slip

It was a fusion of confusion

With a few confounding things

I guess I probably took the wrong direction

Well I admit I might have missed a sign or two

I ran a light past your affection

At humiliation avenue

I took a right turn at confusion

A left when I should have gone straight on through

I ran ahead with my assumptions

And we all know what that can do

One little slip

One little slip

It was a fusion of confusion

With a few confounding things

I get the feeling in this town

I'll never live till I live down

The one mistake that seems to follow me around

They'll forget about the sky when they all realize

This guy's about to try to learn to fly or

Hit the ground

It was a cup of good intentions

A tablespoon of one big mess

A dash of over reaction

And I assume you know the rest

One little slip

One little slip

It was a humble little stumble

With a big ungraceful

One little slip

One little slip

It was a fusion of confusion

With a few confounding things
