Run Run Run

(I'm) in some chick's apartment
I'm just hiding from the rain
When she began to ask too many questions
Well I think I'll change the subject
As I try to leave again
And I needed time to underline my answers

I had to run run run
Go on home and be alone tonight
Run run run
Go on home you know I don't feel right

A familiar sort of numbness
Had descended on my brain
And a painless sort of pain began to nag me
Well I started in to fidget
Just as though I'd missed a train
And everything she'd said had failed to grab me

I had to run run run
Go on home and be alone tonight
I had to run run run
Go on home, you know I don't feel right

I had to run run run
Go on home and be alone tonight
Run run run
Go on home, you know it don't feel right

So if you take a woman
Make sure she'll entertain
And not mess up your head with conversation
If you find a good one
You'll have everything to gain
But if you don't you surely won't feel exhilaration

You have to run run run
Go on home and be alone tonight
You have to run run run
Go on home, you know it don't feel right

Keep on running...
