Speed Trials

Elliott Smith

6

He's pleased to meet you underneath the horse

In the cathedral with the glass stained black

Singing sweet high notes that echo back

To destroy their master

May be a long time til you get the call-up

But it's sure as fate and hard as your luck

No one'll know where you are

It's just a brief smile crossing your face

Running speed trials still standing in place

When the socket's not a shock enough

You little child what makes you think you're tough

When all the people you think you're above

They all know what's the matter

You're such a pinball yeah you know it's true

There's always something you come back running to

To follow the path of no resistance

It's just a brief smile crossing your face

Running speed trials standing in place

It's just a brief smile crossing your face

Running speed trials all over the place
