Lyrics
0:12He's pleased to meet you underneath the horse
0:16In the cathedral with the glass stained black
0:21Singing sweet high notes that echo back
0:27To destroy their master
0:30May be a long time 'til you get the call-up
0:35But it's sure as fate and hard as your luck
0:42No one'll know where you are
0:49It's just a brief smile crossing your face
0:58Running speed trials still standing in place
1:17When the socket's not a shock enough
1:22You little child what makes you think you're tough
1:26When all the people you think you're above
1:32They all know what's the matter
1:36You're such a pinball yeah you know it's true
1:40There's always something you come back running to
1:47To follow the path of no resistance
1:54It's just a brief smile crossing your face
2:04Running speed trials standing in place
2:13It's just a brief smile crossing your face
2:23Running speed trials all over the place
2:32Uh-uh-huu
2:35Huu-hu-hu-hu-hu
2:38Huu-hu-hu-hu-hu
2:41Uh-uh-huu
2:44Huu-hu-hu-hu-hu
2:47Huu-hu-hu-hu-hu
2:50Uh-uh-huu
2:53Huu-hu-hu-hu-hu
