[Verse 1: Elliott Smith]
Future bu*terfly
Going to spend the day higher than high
You'll be beautiful confusion
Ooh, once I was you
[Verse 2]
I saw you caught between
All the people out making a scene
And a bright ideal, tomorrow
Ooh, don't go too far, stay who you are
[Chorus]
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
You only live a day
But it's brilliant anyway
[Verse 3]
I saw you at the perfect place
It's going to happen soon, but not today
So go to sleep, and make a change
I'll meet you here tomorrow
Independence Day
Independence Day
Independence Day
