Elliott Smith
New Monkey

Here come the sidewalk boss again
Telling me how I can't cave in
That I'm a study in black
Need a pat on the back
I looked up and smile
A picture of dissatisfaction
That he can only see as a junkie
Though I might be straight as an arrow
He's busy shaking hands with my monkey
Busy shaking hands with my monkey

Well I go in the car
Straight to the bar
Where my sweetie pours the beer
For the millions of fans ignoring the bands
He's in my ear
Wants me to live in denial
Says you've gotta settle for something
Though it might not be really living
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing

No actor action man gonna move in to take my place
I'll be pumping out the product
Just a total waste

Look at your hands unoccupied
Look at the lengths you'll go to hide
You're under the veil
Pretending to fail
Gotta whole lot of empty time left to go
Now you've gotta fill it with something
I know what you can do don't you know
Anything is better than nothing

No actor action man gonna move in to take my place
I'll be pumping out the product
Just a total waste

I'm here with my cup
Afraid to look up
This is how I spend my time
Lazin' around, head hangin' down
Stuck inside my imagination
Busy making something from nothing
Pictures of hope and depression
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing


Mirror lyrics:

Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing
Pictures of hope and depression
Busy making something from nothing
Stuck inside my imagination
Lazin' around, head hangin' down
This is how I spend my time
Afraid to look up
I'm here with my cup

Just a total waste
I'll be pumping out the product
No actor action man gonna move in to take my place

Anything is better than nothing
I know what you can do don't you know
Now you've gotta fill it with something
Gotta whole lot of empty time left to go
Pretending to fail
You're under the veil
Look at the lengths you'll go to hide
Look at your hands unoccupied

Just a total waste
I'll be pumping out the product
No actor action man gonna move in to take my place

Anything is better than nothing
Anything is better than nothing
Though it might not be really living
Says you've gotta settle for something
Wants me to live in denial
He's in my ear
For the millions of fans ignoring the bands
Where my sweetie pours the beer
Straight to the bar
Well I go in the car

Busy shaking hands with my monkey
He's busy shaking hands with my monkey
Though I might be straight as an arrow
That he can only see as a junkie
A picture of dissatisfaction
I looked up and smile
Need a pat on the back
That I'm a study in black
Telling me how I can't cave in
Here come the sidewalk boss again
