slip

running around
with those high heels on
you look great, but it’s wearing you out
getting down
to business so capably
got a grip on the clipboard, without a doubt

so why don’t you slip?
slip into something,
something more comfortable?
give yourself a break

why don’t you just let
just let everything
let everything go, all you know
come on, it’s getting late

when you walk in
they all start smiling
they want to be right where you sit

see what they get?
names circled on the page
kept track there on your checklist

there’s a place here
a place here for you
you by my side when day is through,
everything is alright

so why don’t you slip?
slip into something
something more comfortable
right here into my arms

open the door
take all those things off
stretch out there on the floor

you’ll understand
what you’ll find right here
under the breeze of the ceiling fan

so why don’t you slip
slip into something
something more comfortable
right here into my arms

there’s a place here
a place here for you
you by my side when day is through,
everything is alright

so why don’t you slip
slip into something
something more comfortable
slip right here into my arms
