Elliott Smith
Cannibal
Up on the rooftop, my head explodes
Just like the Fourth of July
I'm about to say I'm about to want you so
I just feel blue, like so many other times

Don't put my name to shame
I listen when my mama calls me
I ain't no bald-faced liar
Trying to take anybody at all
See, yeah
I listen when my mama calls me
I ain't no bald-faced liar
Trying to take anybody at all
See, yeah

Gotta let the live wire go
Gotta get the socket off my hand
Why'd you lead me around for so long like nobody can?
Don't you know what kind of guy I am?

Don't put my name to shame
I listen when my mama calls me
I ain't no bald-faced liar
Trying to take anybody at all
See, yeah
I listen when my mama calls me
I ain't no bald-faced liar
Trying to take anybody at all
See?
Why'd you lead me around for so long like nobody can?
Don't you know what kinda guy I am?

Yeah, don't put my name to shame
I listen when my mama calls me
I ain't no bald-faced liar
Trying to take anybody at all
See, yeah
I listen when my mama calls me
I ain't no bald-faced liar
Trying to take anybody at all
See?
