One Little Slip

It was a recipe for disaster

A four-course meal of no-sirree

It seemed that happily ever after

Was happy everyone was after meIt was a cup of good intentions

A tablespoon of one big mess

A dash of overreaction

I assume you know the restOne little slip, one little slip

It was a fusion of confusion

With a few confounding thingsI 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 AvenueI 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 doOne little slip, one little slip

It was a fusion of confusion

With a few confounding thingsI get the feeling in this town, I'll never live til 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 groundIt was a cup of good intentions

A tablespoon of one big mess

A dash of overreaction

And I assume you know the restOne little slip, one little slip

It was a humble little stumble

With a big ungracefulOne little slip, one little slip

It was a fusion of confusion

With a few confounding things
