John Wesley Harding
Slippery Slide to Bliss
[Verse 1]
We used to ruin almost everything
We brought elation to its knees
We locked the song of love in Sing Sing
Bad things don't always come in threes
We musta stayed together on a dare
You plus me was bad enough
Till we were hell squared
[Verse 2]
We used to argue over everything
We were the first to split the hair
Well, it so clearly wasn't happening
Didn't even seem to care
Something subtle this way came
It took us time to realize we were going up in flames
[Chorus]
And now we walk along the road in total happiness
People stop and smile when we kiss
We're walking hand in hand in total happiness
And I know what this is
Oh, we're on the slippery slide to bliss (Yeah)
[Verse 3]
Now no one needs to get the upper hand
Doesn't matter who is right
You are the one who can strike up my band
I'm the man who flies your kite
And who are we to ask the question why?
The sun is shining in our eyes
Let's love some more before we die
[Chorus]
We walk along the road in total happiness
People stop and smile when we kiss
We're walking hand in hand in total happiness
And I know what this is
Oh, we're on the slippery slide to bliss (Slippery slide to bliss)
We're on the slippery slide to bliss
[Bridge]
Oh, it was so gradual
It went to bad from worse
Slowly, so we barely noticed it
And then the change was obvious
When bad became okay
And okay segued slowly into this
[Chorus]
And now we walk along the road in total happiness
People stop and smile when we kiss
We're walking hand in hand in total happiness
And I know what this is
Oh, we're on the slippery slide to bliss (Slippery slide to bliss)
We're on the slippery slide to bliss (Slippery slide to bliss)
We're on the slippery slide to bliss
[Outro]
Here on the slippery slide to bliss
The slippery slide
