Standing At The Gate Lyrics - Eels

So what are you gonna do about me? 

I been hangin' 'round a while 

Trading books and knowing glances 

I tought I'd stick around but it really ain't my style 

So this ain't heaven on earth 

Looks like we'll have to wait 

But we are standing at the gate 

I took a look inside your attic 

And secret shelves and hidden rooms 

It didn't scare me when I saw it 

Your hidden attic is no temple of doom

So, what are you going to do about me? 

Put me on a secret shelf? 

I wanna change myself around 

You know I would do it if I thought that it would help 

So this ain't heaven on earth 

Looks like we'll have to wait 

But we are standing at the gate
