Smith, Elliott - Big Decision Lyrics






Pick me up in an hour or so
I don't really recommend it, no
They'll probably just put you down
I believe you
I wanna be you
I believe you
I wanna be you
I know you're not through with it yet
It's a big decision
You can't kick when you're down
Got a feeling kind of like a cough
Ain't nothing gonna shake it off
Ain't nothing gonna shake it off
Until you talk out loud
I believe you
I wanna be you
I believe you
I wanna be you
I know you're not through with it yet
It's a big decision
You can't kick when you're down
The chromium car reflects who you are taking you home
I'm under you're spell can't you tell? don't you know?
God, people wonder if you're sick
Spilled out on the city slick
Puffed up like a macho jerk
Don't even try it it'll never work
Why you wonder? what you wonder for me?
Why you wonder? what you wonder for me?
Why you want what I can not be you know I won't stay sober
I believe you
I wanna be you
I believe you
I wanna be you
I know you're not through with it yet
It's a big decision
I know you're not through with it yet
It's a big decision
I know you're not through with it yet
It's a big decision
You can't kick when you're down

Smith, Elliott Big Decision Comments
  1. E.... M....

    This is the original version I heard back in 2005, the one where my now husband said he liked on our first date and I was happy to know that I had met someone who heard of Elliott Smith before.

    @erinroseparade The "tall" thing was just a vague memory, he was standing up and all these girls were sitting around him, so he was relatively tall.

  3. S.... ....

    It wasn't Sam's basement by any chance was it? I have a liveset from a place called Sam's basement from september 1996?

  4. t.... ....

    @StelliosHolmes It was with Scared of Chaka in the basement in Eugene in like '96 i think... we played, SoC played, nobody was there - and in walked this tall dude with like thirty girls all looking like hipster frowsy hot librarians, and they all sat down and watched transfixed as he played in the middle of the basement floor (not on the stage). And we were like "who is this guy ?!" and they were all like "he's Elliott Smith" and we were all like.. "who ?!?"

  5. S.... ....

    @tinyvox That's so cool when did you play with him? During his portland years or his LA?

  6. S.... ....

    @dfins109 I wish I was :P
