Speed Trials

Elliott Smith

He's pleased to meet you underneath the horse
In the cathedral with the glass stained black
Singing sweet high notes that echo backTo destroy their master
May be a long time 'til you get the call-up
But it's sure as fate and hard as your luckNo one will know where you are
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
I'm running speed trials standing in placeWhen 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 aboveThey 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 toTo follow the path of no resistance
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
I'm running speed trials standing in place
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
I'm running speed trials all over the place
