Hay Consuelo - Original Mix

Smith Elliott
 Elliott Smith
 Needle in the Hay
 your hand on his arm
 the hay stack charm around your neck
 strung out and thin
 calling some friend trying to cash some check
 he's acting dumb
 that's what you've come to expect
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
 he's wearing yr clothes
 head down to toes a reaction to you
 you say you know what he did
 but you idiot kid
 you don't have a clue
 sometimes they just get caught in the eye
 you're pulling him through
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
 now on the bus
 nearly touching this dirty retreat
 falling out 6th and powell a dead sweat in my teeth
 gonna walk walk walk
 four more blocks plus the one in my brain
 down downstairs to the man
 he's gonna make it all OK
 i can't beat myself
 i can't beat myself
 and i don't want to talk
 i'm taking the cure so i can be quiet
 whenever i want
 so leave me alone
 you ought to be proud that i'm getting good marks
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
 needle in the hay
