Elliott Smith - 10.14.99 1 lyrics

The big problem is the main attraction Dominoes are falling in a chain reaction The scraping subject ruled by fear told me "whiskey life's better than beer" The judge is on vinyl, decisions are final And nobody gets a reprieve And everyway this title if you hang around You're going to get well I can't prepare for d**h any more than i already have All you can do now is watch the shelves The game looks easy that's why it sells Frustrated fireworks inside your head Are going to stand and deliver talk instead The method acting that pays my bills Keeps the fat man pheening in beverly hills I got a heavy metal mouth in hilltop city And i get my check from the trash treasury Cos i took my own insides out It don't matter cos i had no s** life All i want to do now is eject my ex wife I've seen the movie and i know what happens It's a christmas time And the needles on the tree A skinny santa is bringing something to me His voice is overwhelming, but his speech is slurred And i only understand every other word "open your parachute and grab your gun Falling down like an omen, my setting sun Read the part and we turn out fine It's a hell of a role if you can bring it alive" But i don't care if i f** up I'm going on a date with a rich white lady Ain't life great? Give me one good reason not to do it This is a place where time reverses Dead men talk to all the pretty nurses Instruments shine on a silver train Don't let me be carried away Don't let me be carried away Don't let me be carried away
