a solitary man with a messy
apartment which may or may not contain a chicken

Elliot…

imitation picks you up like a habit
Riding in the glow of the tv static
Taking out the trash to the man
Give the people something they understand

Mistake a nervous flash for a fine-line smile
Junk bond trader trying to sell a sucker a stock
Rich man in a poor mans clothes
The permanent installment of the daily dose

And you tell me, fool, you tell it like it is
Your walls gone wider than your head trip is
Checking into a small reality
Void as a drug you take too regularly

Im the hitchhiker you recognize passing
On your way to some everlasting…
Better sell it while you can

Elliot Smith - Junk Bond Traders
