The Slip lyrics by The Smile
A black hole at the centre of a galaxy
Being pulled, being pulled, being pulled down
Nice and easy
As a nought, as a nil, as a no
One more step till finally you just freeze
You’re gonna give us the slip tonight
Out through the keyhole
Open like you’re the hole in the ozone
You’re gonna give us the slip tonight
Plaster partitions
Blackbird says nothing
You’re gonna laugh
You’re gonna sing
And you’re gonna bring the world down round your ears
While the temperature grows ugly
While you threaten to press the button
Let’s pretend, let’s pretend, let’s pretend
One more step till finally you just freeze
Staring into infinity
As if, as if you cannot see
You’re gonna give us the slip tonight
Out through the keyhole
‘Cause you want shit for free
I don’t know it was just, just a question
We are so in trouble
Somehow it’s, it’s not like you imagined
We are so in trouble
One more step till finally you just freeze
