ray stevens – freudian slip lyrics

Loading...

well, she was walking toward me in a tight red dress
looking like she just won a beauty contest
i wanted so bad to make a good impression
using all the powers of articulate expression
then all the blood rushed out of my head
and i can’t be held responsible for what i said

’cause what i meant to say was… “i’d be honored to
reveal to you some aspects of our fair metropolis that
a lady of your obvious sophistication might find
extremely stimulating.”

what slipped out was… “(blabbering) wanna see my pet
frog?”

chorus: freudian slip (a slip of the tongue)
my brain does a flip (and i come undone)
my tongue starts to trip (all over my words)
and they come out of my lips (like something you never
heard)
in my desperate attempts to be cool
i try to be hip, and i’m a blabbering fool
what i mean to say is poetic
but what comes out is just pathetic

(blabbering)

no time for regrets — hey, what are you gonna do
’cause the very next day i had a job interview
but then came the shocker and i don’t mean maybe
the personnel director was the very same lady
i thought, here’s my chance to turn it all around
i’ll dazzle her by saying something profound

and what i meant to say was… “i’m quite confident
that i have the educational qualifications and the
inherent sensitivity to become an indispensible -sset
to your establishment.”

what slipped out was… “(blabbering) would you sign
my arm?”

(repeat chorus twice)
