lyrics
no name #1 by elliott smith
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looking kind of spooky and withdrawn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
every 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
