ELLIOTT SMITH lyrics : "Baby Britain"

Baby Britain feels the best
Floating over a sea of vodka
Separated from the rest

Fights problems with bigger problems
Sees the ocean fall and rise
Counts the waves that somehow didn't hit her

Water pourning from her eyes
Alcohol again, very bitter


For someone half as smart, you'd be a work of art
You put yourself apart
And I can't help until you start


We knocked another couple back
The dead soldiers lined up on the table

Still prepared for an attack
They didn't know they'd been disabled
Felt a wave, a rush of blood,

You won't be happy 'til the bottle's broken
You're out swimming in the flood
You kept back, you kept unspoken


For someone half as smart, you'd be a work of art
You put yourself apart

And I can't help you until you start

You've got a look in your eye when you're saying goodbye

Like you want to say hi

The light was on but it was dim

Revolver's been turned over
And now it's ready once again
The radio is playing Crimson and Clover

London Bridge is safe and sound
No matter what you keep repeating
Nothing's gonna drag me down

To a death that's not worth cheating

For someone half as smart, you'd be a work of art

You put yourself apart
And I can't help until you start
For someone half as smart, you'd be a work of art

You put yourself apart
