Elliott Smith - No Name #1 lyrics

At a party

He was waiting

Looking kind of spooky and withdrawn

Like he could be underwater

The mighty mother with her hundred arms

Swept all aside

I hate to walk behind other people's ambition

I saw you waiting

Saint-like

With your warning

Leave alone

You don't belong here

He got nervous

Started whistling

Ever thought a ricochet

Did you notice?

Well I wondered

What's the worst thing I could say?

Froze up and sighed

You remind me of someone's daughter

I forgot her

I forgot her name, ashamed

Go home

And live with your pain

Leave alone

Leave alone, cos you know you don't belong

You don't belong here

And when I go

Don't you follow

Leave alone

Leave alone, cos you know you don't belong

You don't belong here

Slip out quiet

Nobody's looking

Leave alone

You don't belong here
