Lyrics for Song: Slip Away (A Warning) 
Lyrics for Album: Songs For Drella [1990]
  
               
  21695>Friends have said to lock the door
  and have an open house no more
  the said the Factory must change
  And slowly slip away
 
 
  But if I have to live in fear
  where will I get my ideas
  with all those crazy people gone
  Will I slowly slip away
 
 
  Still there's no more Billy Name
  Ondine is not the same
  Wonton and the Turtle gone
  Slowly slip away
  slowly slip away
 
 
  If I close the Factory door
  and don't see those people anymore
  if I give in to infamy
  I'll slowly slip away
 
 
  I know it seems that friends are right
  hello daylight, goodbye night
  but starlight is so quiet here
  Think I'll slowly slip away
 
 
  What can I do by myself
  it's good to here from someone else
  it's good to hear a crazy voice
  Will not slip away
  will not slip away
 
 
  If I have to live in fear
  my ideas will slowly slip away
 
 
  If I have to live in fear
  I'm afraid my life will slip away
 
 
  If you can't see me past my door
  why your thoughts could slowly slip away
 
 
  If I have to lock the door
  another life exists no more slip away
 
 
  Friends have said to lock the door
  watch out for who comes through the door
  the said the Factory must change
 
 
  But I don't
