Wiped out in the city slick
Another sick rock 'n' roller acting like a dick

Elliott Smith - Looking Over My Shoulder
LYRICS Wiped out in the city slick Another sick rock 'n' roller acting like a dick waving cash Burning through the trash That piles up in this place And fills up behind my empty face Full of things that I'm not to do
You come over with all of your friends And all their opinions I don't want to know And I'm looking over my shoulder Booking away with nowhere to go
I run down to the corner lot It's forty-five past two I almost forgot to show Got a date to make with Mr. So-and-So After which I won't care when you all start to bitch and moan About being alone
You come over with all of your friends And all their opinions I don't want to know And I'm looking over my shoulder Booking away with nowhere to go
Well, can't you just leave me alone? You've already thrown all the sticks and stones You had to send my way Well, can't you just leave it at that? And spare us both the bother Because I just bounce back anyway I got nothing that I want to do more Than make another sonic fuck you to play Whenever you make my life cliche So to fit in some little box with the all the lame bullshit You say to keep confusion away
You come over with all of your friends And all their opinions I don't want to know And I'm looking over my shoulder Booking away with nowhere to go
You come over with all of your friends And all their opinions I don't want to know And I'm looking over my shoulder Booking away

your guys are some fucking dumb. Dave DID NOT STEAL THIS IN ANY WAY!! its a scale not some sort of riff. know your shit before you blame people. Dave is a god. and Elliot doesnt seem bad. But DAVE DID NOT in anyway shape or form steal this. Its a scale. not invented by Elliot or Dave.
I don't care if he technically stole from Elliott or not. The point is I can't listen to the opening of this great song without thinking about that god awful one. For that I hate the fucker.
I love Dave Matthews but you're right Elliott Smith is untouchable when it comes to his incredibly beautiful performances, we'll never have another musician as brilliant as Elliott
