Elliott Smith

The gentlemans in the lane spinning his hat on a cane
Stepping out, out for a change
Good morning all, its a beautiful day
The generals winning the war that seems suicidal before you came along
Now Ill protect you as long as youll stay
LA morning had to come, Id be walking in the sun
Living in the day
But last night I was about to throw it all away
If patience started a band Id be her biggest fan
Look at me, Im talking to you
I dont want the lead in your play
The stars just a part of the scene, the gentleman in green
Paying off out on the street
I cant go home, its not on my way
LA things Ive never done, cars parked in the sun
Living in the day
But last night I was about to throw it all away
Last night I was about to throw it all away
Last night I was about to throw it all away
Last night I was about to throw it all away
[ La Lyrics ]
