Slip
by The Throes

Album: Ameroafriasiana

Tell me what I want to hear,
The conversations you do steer,
Don't tell me what I want to know,
You say the things I hold so dear,
Tell me, want to tell me now,
Sell me out, say, "Show me how,"
You tell me what I want to hear,
You do the things that let me down,
But, loved one, you don't care,
Baby, you won't dare.

You slip away, cast away,
Slip away, cast away,
Slip away, cast away,
Slip away, cast away,
Cast away, slip away,
Slip away, cast away,
You slip away, cast away,
Cast away, slip away,
You slip away, cast away,
Cast away, slip away.

You tell me what I want to hear,
Conversations you do steer,
Don't tell me what I want to know,
You say the things I hold so dear,
Tell me, want to tell me now,
Sell me out, say, "Show me how,"
You tell me what I want to hear,
You do the things that let me down,
But, honey, you won't care,
Baby, you won't dare.

You slip away, cast away,
Slip away, cast away,
Cast away, slip away,
You slip away, cast away,
Cast away, slip away,
Slip away, cast away,
You slip away, cast away,
Cast away, slip away,
You slip away, cast away,
Cast away, slip away,
You slip away, cast away,
Cast away, slip away,
You slip away, cast away.
