The biggest lie
par Elliott Smith
lyricscopy.com
I´m waiting for the train
Subway that only goes one way
The stupid thing that´ll come to pull us apart
And make everybody late
You spent everything you had
Wanted everything to stop that bad
Now I´m a crashed credit card registered to Smith -
Not the name that you called me with
You turned white like a saint
I´m tired of dancing on a pot of gold-flaked paint
Oh we´re so very precious, you and I
And everything that you do makes me want to die
Oh I just told the biggest lie
I just told the biggest lie
The biggest lie
Subway that only goes one way
The stupid thing that´ll come to pull us apart
And make everybody late
You spent everything you had
Wanted everything to stop that bad
Now I´m a crashed credit card registered to Smith -
Not the name that you called me with
You turned white like a saint
I´m tired of dancing on a pot of gold-flaked paint
Oh we´re so very precious, you and I
And everything that you do makes me want to die
Oh I just told the biggest lie
I just told the biggest lie
The biggest lie
