It was a recipe for disaster 
four course meal of no sirree 
It seemed that happily ever after 
Was happy everyone was after me 
It was a cup of good intentions 
table spoon of one big mess 
dash of over reaction 
I assume you know the rest 
 [bad word]  
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 
left when I shoulda gone straight on threw 
I ran ahead with my assumptions 
We all know what that can do 
 [bad word]  

I get the felling 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 this guy s 
about to try to learn to fly or hit the ground 

It was a cup of good intentions 
table spoon of one big mess 
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 un-graceful… 
 [bad word]
