Track Goes By - The High Llamas

The morning’s broken and her ticket waits

The hazy purple shimmer looks so great

And the road’s so smooth

Recently laid and it’s hardly used

Now country music at this time of day

Can make the future seem so far away

Though the trade was slow

The cabby knew more than he let her know

So she said, this conversation’s dead

Nobody wants to watch the track go by

The trucks are waiting in the loading bay

It’s gonna be another busy day in the Middle East

She fixes her hair, in a hotel suite

So she said, this conversation’s dead

Nobody wants to watch the track go by

So upset, picked up the cigarette

Nobody wants to watch the track go by

So she said, this conversation’s dead

Nobody wants to watch the track go by

So upset, picked up the cigarette

Nobody wants to watch the track go by
