The Slide lyrics

When you re too old for the swings
You tend to choose the slide
And they never seem to warn you
The slide s your final ride
And when you re at the top of it
And you cannot see the end
Either don t let go son - Or grab the nearest friend
The slide is no respecter of dignitiy or class
As soon as you sit down on it
The slide has got your ass
Don t take the slide, don t take the slide
Heroes and villains have tried and cried
A pile of broken souls at the bottom it denied
Don t take the slide, don t take the slide
When the slide was invented
A thousand drinkers sighed
They thought they had the copyright
Of the very word the slide
It s a picture of innocence
On which the innocent have fried
Take the helter skelter son
It s easier than the slide
Advice to listening parents
Or the father of the bride
Let them marry anyone
But don t let her take the slide
Don t take the slide, don t take the slide
Heroes and villains have tried and cried
A pile of broken souls at the bottom it denied
Don t take the slide, don t take the slide
It ll take much much lower
Than you ever would have asked
Cause as soon as you sit down on it
The slide has got your ass - It s customers are fools
And every one of them deceased
The long and silver murderer
The Devil must have greased
Don t take the slide, don t take the slide
Heroes and villains have tried and cried
A pile of broken souls at the bottom it denied
Don t take the slide, don t take the slide.
