Slippage

Quick two-stop train ride
Off to Selly Oak
For some thing or other
That will probably be a joke

So my words here will be brief
On this misty morn
Don't get the idea though
That I'm moody or forlorn

I might be slightly off-key
That much is very true
My footings seem to lack
Their usual amount of glue

So slip and slide I will for now
You'd better hold on tight
Don't want it being too bumpy
Then you run off in fright
