Elliott Smith Looking Over My Shoulder song lyrics
Wiped out and the city's lit
Another sick rock and roller
Acting like a dick
Needing cash
Rooting through the trash
That piles up in this place
And fills up behind my empty face
Full of things we are not to do

You come over with all of your friends
And all their opinions I don't want to know
And I'm looking over my shoulder
Booking away with nowhere to go

I run down to the corner lot
It's forty-five past two
I almost forgot to show
I got a date to make with Mr So and So
After which
I won't care when you all start to bitch
And moan about being alone

You come over with all of your friends
And all their opinions I don't want to know
And I'm looking over my shoulder
Booking away with nowhere to go

Why can't you just leave me alone
You've already thrown
All the sticks and stones
You had to send my way
Why can't you just leave it at that
And spare us both the bother
Cuz I just bounce back anway

I got nothing that I want to do
More than make another
Sonic fuck you to play
Whenever you make my life cliche
So to fit in some little box
With all the made up shit you say
To keep confusion away

You come over with all of your friends
And all their opinions I don't want to know
And I'm looking over my shoulder
Booking away with nowhere to go

You come over with all of your friends
And all their opinions I don't want to know
And I'm looking over my shoulder
Booking away
