Slips Backwards

girl you know this party's just a compromise

between these boardroom suits and your bedroom eyes

and don't you think the dancin is a waste of time

and i expect you to move if you expect me to apologize

for all the things i said about your man

and i'm sorry if i treat you like a maintainance plan

nothin gets me down now, man it's gettin loud out

i'm shaking in the downtown, here's a little shoutout, yeah

girl you know you're startin to really harm

and your stars are shootin up and down my arm

i've been thinkin all about what you said about my karma

catchin every reference that you make about the dharma bums

these denver slums they look so good in text

and i'm sorry when you came through that we didn't connect

i was jammin to my tape deck, lookin for my paycheck

lookin for some car sex, checkin every car wreck with baited breath

and bloated tongue

never had so much fun

inflate your chest

burn your skin

make a mess outta him

thought you said that you were gonna get some zest soap

and i thought baby nice, nice, that stuff gets your skin slick

then i heard that you were living on the west coast

girl i had to call twice, felt like such a big dick

then i heard that you were hanging out at pawn shops

you always get a good price, you sure get some good junk

then i heard that you were dressin kinda hip-hop

ducking for the drive-bys, you'd best go back to skate punk

slip and trip and hang around

said that she liked hardcore, took her to a party

kissed her down on lake street, didn't get her number

kiss and trip and hang around
