Slipping & Sliding Away

The highway is snowing
Wouldn't you show me
Take out your map
So we can head back home
2 hours till sound check
Stop by the store
Because my amps blown

We are slipping & sliding away

We're jamming the throttle
I piss in a bottle
You better watch out
For that radar cop
Fly through the toll booth
Would you quit being uncoup
Roll down the window
Toss out that sock

We are slipping & sliding away

I sent you a postcard today
Saying we won't be back
Until May & we're all ok
Many paths I do wrong
Till I wind up right back home
& they'll all say
"My how you have grown"
& I'll groan

Checkouts at 12 noon
We're watching some cartoons
The front desk is pissed
& they want us out
The maid keeps on knocking
My girlfriend is talking
If the bar was a dual
Then I'd have more clout

We are slipping & sliding away
We are slipping & sliding away

I sent you a postcard today
Saying we won't be back
Until May & we're all ok

We are slipping & sliding away
We are slipping & sliding away

Back
