Artist/Band: Elliott Smith
Lyrics for Song: Placeholder
Lyrics for Album: New Moon [2007]



Looking at all the rows

All these records look like big zeros

Got your picture on the back of a forty-five

A placeholder till you take up mine

A placeholder till you take up mine



I'm the person you'll never need

The biggest loser on sixteenth street

The invisible man with the see-through mind

A placeholder till you take up mine

A placeholder till you take up mine



Break off of in someone's laughter

You can tell right there

He's still a square

He likes the way that you look now

Like an open book



Just like my favourite song

Some pretty words that didn't last that long

Like a package sent priority overnight

Placeholder come and take up mine

Placeholder come and take up mine

Placeholder come and take up mine

Placeholder come and take up mine
