Let’s Turn the Record Over

By Elliott Smith

On Grand Mal: Studio Rarities

One

Tomorrow I'll feel fine

It's yesterday that took my breath away

Flying off the handle, finally

Sweeping down the avenue

God's up in his heaven

And the devil's on Bonnie Raitt

But there seems to be no room for us

So choose your poison, it's up to you

I'd recommend you think about it

Long and hard

'Cause the woods can get thick quick inside

Dark and tangled and petrified

And you'll wander through the endless night

And never see the light of day

Let's turn the record over

Your life's a pleasant valley

Moonlight lies upon us in the sun

His shadow stays behind you

Graceful as a dancer in a ballet
