Baby Britain lyrics

[Originally by Elliot Smith]

Baby Britain feels the best
Floating over a sea of vodka
Separated from the rest
Fights problems with bigger problems
Sees the ocean fall and rise
Counts the waves that somehow didn t hit her
Water pouring from her eyes
Alcoholic and very bitter
For someone half as smart
You d be a work of art
You put yourself apart
And I can t help until you start
We knocked another couple back
The dead soldiers lined up on the table
Still prepared for an attack
They didn t know they d been disabled
Felt a wave, a rush of blood
You won t be happy til the bottle s broken
And you re out swimming in the flood
You kept back you kept unspoken
For someone half as smart
You d be a work of art
You put yourself apart
And I can t help until you start
You got a look in your eye
When you re saying goodbye
Like you wanna say hi

The light was on but it was dim
Revolver s been turned over
And now it s ready once again
The radio was playing "crimson and clover"
London bridge is safe and sound
No matter what you keep repeating
Nothing s gonna drag me down
To a death that s not worth cheating
For someone half as smart
You d be a work of art
You put yourself apart
I can t help until you start
For someone half as smart you d be a work of art
You put yourself apart
