16​/​04​/​16

2016

[Intro]
Marty: whoa, this is it, this is the part coming up, Doc
TV Doc: No no no this sucker’s electrical, but I need a nuclear reaction
To generate the one point twenty-one gigawatts of electricity-
Doc: What did I just say?
TV Doc: No no no this sucker’s electrical, but I need a nuclear reaction
To generate the one point twenty-one gigawatts of electricity that I need
Doc: One point twenty-one gigawatts. One point twenty-one gigawatts
Great Scott
Marty: What the hell is a gigawatt?
Doc: How could I have been so careless? One point twenty-one gigawatts

[Verse 1]
Picture this, promises (yeah)
You’re a snitch, you’ll tell them anything
Hear me out, don’t be difficult
We’ll work this out, and then mess it up again

[Chorus]
Oh I’ve been slipping lately, I’ve been slipping lately

[Verse 2]
Call it quits, dwelling’s criminal
Sorry miss, condition’s critical
Soda fizz, is stuck in his blood stream
Diagnosis, probably attention seeking

[Chorus]
I’ve been slipping lately, oh I’ve been slipping lately
I've been slipping lately, oh I've been slipping lately

[Interlude]

[Bridge]
It doesn’t really matter
You know what's real
Burning on your fingers
You know how to feel

[Chorus]
I’ve been slipping lately, oh I’ve been slipping lately
I've been slipping lately, oh I've been slipping lately

[Outro]
Oh I've been slipping lately, oh I've been slipping lately
