No Name #2 Lyrics

Lyric discussion by lizardbrain 

Cover art for No Name #2 lyrics by Elliott Smith

before i read the lyircs/comments i always thought it was about a suicide caller. in my mind i pictured a suicidal girl calling a pay phone, and an anonymous man answers, not giving a shit-"do what you have to do"-when he could of saved her life. this is obviously not what the song is about but for some reason that is what i always pictured when listening to no name #2. on of my favorite songs though, now reading the comments its obvious i was wrong, i think the previous comments are correct
