The Royal Tenenbaums movie - Needle In The Hay lyrics

rate me

Song by Elliott Smith<br /><br>

your hand on his arm<br>

the hay stack charm around your neck<br>

strung out and thin<br>

calling some friend trying to cash some check<br>

he's acting dumb<br>

that's what you've come to expect<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

he's wearing yr clothes<br>

head down to toes a reaction to you<br>

you say you know what he did<br>

but you idiot kid<br>

you don't have a clue<br>

sometimes they just get caught in the eye<br>

you're pulling him through<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

now on the bus<br>

nearly touching this dirty retreat<br>

falling out 6th and powell a dead sweat in my teeth<br>

gonna walk walk walk<br>

four more blocks plus the one in my brain<br>

down downstairs to the man<br>

he's gonna make it all OK<br>

i can't beat myself<br>

i can't beat myself<br>

and i don't want to talk<br>

i'm taking the cure so i can be quiet<br>

whenever i want<br>

so leave me alone<br>

you ought to be proud that i'm getting good marks<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

needle in the hay<br>

<br>
