Elliott Smith
Speed Trials (alt lyrics)
[Verse 1]
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

[Alternative Chorus]
It's just a brief smile got stuck on your face
You're running speed trials all over the place

[Alternative Verse 2]
When the socket's not a shock enough
But you're a child because you think you're tough
You can remember what you were thinking of
Don't ask, "What's the matter?"
'Cause he's a pinball, yeah, you know it's true
He's gonna keep on coming back to you
Follow the path of no resistance

[Alternative Chorus]
It's just a brief smile got stuck on your face
You're running speed trials all over the place
It's just a brief smile got stuck on your face
You're running speed trials all over the place
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
