Elliott Smith - 10.14.99 2 lyrics

the sweet hot(?) of the passing hour

my make up's starting to crack

people talk behind my back

and i don't like that

see the man of the moment

trying to get himself in my shot

telling everyone he's not

confidence artist

there's so many people

there's so many people

there's so many people

you gotta settle the score

look a little bit closer now

see if the side you can take

the suspense has to got break

and it will someday

still life in a darkened room

will be flooded with light

and it might make you uptight

but you won't die from exposure

there's so many people

there's so many people

there's so many people

you gotta settle the score

there's so many people

too many people

no no no

i'm just enchanted now

some other time

if you're seeing something

that you're not supposed to see

you'll be charged a penalty

and you'll pay forever

i been working night and day

building sets on a lot

in a land that time forgot

captured here in my camera

there's so many people

there's so many people

there's so many people

you gotta settle the score

there's so many people

too many people

no no no

i'm too enchanted now

some other time

some other time
