One Little Slip Lyrics - Barenaked Ladies

It was a recipe for disaster 

A four course meal of no siree 

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 

Took a right turn at confusion 

A left when I shoulda gone straight on through 

I ran ahead with my assumptions 

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 

But they'll forget about the sky 

When they all realize 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 

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
