Run

A story told using video and song.

Run - Lyrics
[Verse 1]

I saw shadows cross the sky

I saw things that should not fly

They took the mayor, they took my dog

They caught me as I ran through the fog

 
Dressed me up and put me on display

Available to anyone willing to pay

As the fat alien bartered and talked

I rattled my cage and picked the lock

Now it’s time to end my stay

It’s time for me to slip away

[Chorus]

Run, run, run

Try to catch me now

If you want me back

You’ll have to run me down

Run, run, run

Try to catch me now

I’ll tear you apart

If you touch me now

Run, run, run

You can’t catch me now

[Verse 2]

A bike is a bike, and I know how to ride

But there is too many, I need to hide

Look at the people accepting their fate

They better start fighting before it’s too late

[Instrumental Break: 4 bars]

[Chorus]

Run, run, run

Try to catch me now

If you want me back

You’ll have to run me down

Run, run, run

Try to catch me now

I’ll tear you apart

If you touch me now

Run, run, run

You can’t catch me now

[Bridge]

A goon is a goon, and I know how to fight

But there are too many; this just ain’t right

Why won’t anyone lend me a hand?

All I need is one strong man

[Instrumental Break: 4 bars]

[Outro]

Run, run, run

Wait—no, they’re here

Run, run, run

Too close, too near

Run, run, run

I can’t— I can’t

They’re on me now
