One Little Slip lyrics

It was a recipe for disaster

A four-course meal of "no siree"

It seemed a 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 overreaction

And 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 took a right turn at confusion

A left when I should've 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 and a few confounding things

I get the feeling in this town

I'll never live 'til I let down

The one mistake that seems to follow me around

But 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 overreaction

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
