Elliott Smith - Punch and Judy lyrics
[Elliott Smith - Punch and Judy lyrics]
A wallflower Punch talks to Judy
In a crowded corner where
Anybody can listen in
But they don't read page to
Page or speak easy
Now, they're gonna go say the words
In the wrong order again
They walk in a circle through
All the sidewalk scenes
They used to be a part of one time
Now, everybody just stares and whispers
Driving around up and down Division Street
I used to like it here
It just bums me out to remember
Can't you ever treat anyone nice?
Think I'm gonna make the same mistake twice
They draw the curtain wait for a call
Pretty lucky if they get any
Kind of response at all
Can't you ever treat anyone nice?
Think I'm gonna make the same mistake twice
Gonna make the same mistake twice
In a crowded corner where
Anybody can listen in
But they don't read page to
Page or speak easy
Now, they're gonna go say the words
In the wrong order again
They walk in a circle through
All the sidewalk scenes
They used to be a part of one time
Now, everybody just stares and whispers
Driving around up and down Division Street
I used to like it here
It just bums me out to remember
Can't you ever treat anyone nice?
Think I'm gonna make the same mistake twice
They draw the curtain wait for a call
Pretty lucky if they get any
Kind of response at all
Can't you ever treat anyone nice?
Think I'm gonna make the same mistake twice
Gonna make the same mistake twice
