Can Opener Lyrics by Quicksand

Slip

1993

A trap to fall
Fall into easy
Believe in what you look like, outside
A stain you can't remove
A stain that keeps you from that place
Where you'd probably have much left to prove
Come down, don't fall, over your ego
Don't mind your friends
They just want to go where the fun goes down
Yeah, you want to go up, up-up, up
Hip, hip, hooray, for you
Now you're the one that everyone talks about
The attention you're not getting, it makes you so upset
So take, me down
To the place where you can look your best
Better than anyone else around
A stain you can't remove
A stain that keeps you from that place
Where you'd probably have much less to prove
Once you tried
Once you tried
Tried to get it right
But you couldn't figure out what it takes
To be liked
You're grown up
And now you've gone back
To find, a way, to get, along, it's just, an act
You can wipe that smile
Now you're the one that everyone talks about
Take time, take it easy
I know you work so hard
But your advantage is your beauty
And that's beautiful
Take time, take it easy
I know you work so hard
But you know what your advantage is
And that's beautiful
And that's beautiful
And that's beauty
