作词 : MacManus | |
Take your tiny feet out of your mother's shoes | |
Or there is going to be a terrible scene | |
It's not just the lipstick drawn on crooked | |
When they find how wicked we are | |
How wicked we have been | |
How i've been tempted | |
Chorus: | |
How you tripped at every step | |
You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step | |
How you tripped at every step | |
There's a merry tune that starts in 'i' | |
And ends in 'you,' like many famous pop songs do | |
You would sing along with little tell-tale staggers | |
While balancing on daggers | |
Though they were killing you | |
You looked so deadly | |
Chorus | |
And i would try to catch you | |
Anytime you call | |
Only you drank that potion | |
And went out of control | |
There's nothing to stop you | |
So how can you fall? | |
Let me take your hand | |
Put down that frying pan | |
Darkness would become me underneath the table | |
As the fury raged around the house | |
Your despairing tread was angry and unstable | |
You never suspected | |
Just as that cartoon mouse | |
Went undetected | |
So you tripped at every step | |
In another world of gin and cigarettes | |
Those cocktail cabinets put mud in your eye | |
Maybe that is why you find it hard to see me | |
And if you don't believe me | |
Before you start to cry | |
'don't ever leave me' | |
As you start to lose your grip | |
(once you start losing your grip) | |
You will stumble as you slip | |
(and you will stumble and slip) | |
As you tripped at every step | |
You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step | |
As you tripped at every step |
