"Slips Backwards" lyrics - LIFTER PULLER

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 maintenance 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
Slip and trip and hang around
Slip and trip and hang around
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
Kiss and trip and hang around
Kiss and trip and hang around
Kiss and trip and hang around

Kiss and trip and hang around
Kiss and trip and hang around
Kiss and trip and hang around
Kiss and trip and hang around
