Elliott Smith So Many People Lyrics

the sweet hot(?) of the passing hour
my make up's starting to crack
people talk behind my back
and i don't like that
see the man of the moment
who's trying to get himself in my shot
telling everyone he's not
confidence artist
there's so many people
there's so many people
there's so many people
you gotta settle the score
look a little bit closer now
see if the side you can take
the suspense has to got break
and it will someday
still life in a darkened room
will be flooded with light
and it might make you uptight
but you won't die from exposure
there's so many people
there's so many people there's so many people
you gotta settle the score
there's so many people
too many people
no no no, i'm just enchanted now
some other time
if you're seeing something here
that you're not supposed to see
you'll be charged a penalty
and you'll pay forever
i been working night and day
building sets on a lot
in a land that time forgot
captured here in my camera
there's so many people
there's so many people
there's so many people
you gotta settle the score
there's so many people
too many people
no no no, i'm too enchanted now
some other time
some other time
