The imitation picks you up like a habit
Writing in the glow of the tv's static
Taking out the trash to the man
Give the people something they understand
A stickman flashing a fine line smile
Junk bond trader trying to sell a sucker a style
Rich man in a poor man's clothes
The permanent installment of the daily dose
And you tell off when you tell it like it is
Your world's no wider that your hatred of his
Checking into a small reality
Boring as a drug you take too regularly
The athlete's laugh; the broken crutch
The first true love that folded at the slightest touch
Brought down like an old hotel
People digging through rubble for things they can resell
Happy holidays said sick savior
The leaving lover that I still favor
I won't take your medicine, I don't need a remedy
To be everything I'm supposed to be
I don't want nobody else
I can do it by myself
We're meant to be together
Now I'm a policeman directing traffic
Keeping everything moving, everything static
I'm the hitchhiker you'll recognize passing
On your way to some everlasting
Better sell it while you can
Better sell it while you can
Better sell it while you can
Better sell it while you can
Elliott Smith, born Steven Paul Smith (1969-2003), was an American singer-songwriter and musician known for his introspective and melancholic music. Born in Omaha, Nebraska, Smith moved to Oregon during his adolescence, where he began playing guitar and writing songs. In 1994, he released his debut album "Roman Candle", followed by other successes such as "Either/Or" (1997) and "XO" (2000). His music, characterized by delicate melodies, minimalist arrangements, and introspective lyrics that explored themes of depression, loneliness, and loss, gained him a devoted following worldwide. Smith was also known for his collaborations with other artists, including The Decemberists and Beck. His tragic death in 2003 from a drug overdose left a void in the American indie music scene. Among his most representative songs are "Between the Bars", "Needle in the Hay" and "Waltz #2".
