Runaway
by The Theory of Funkativity
Verse:
Why did she feel the need to
wink at the boy who refilled the coffee
in front of her
Was it because he had
that sort of innocence that was contradicted
as he looked down her shirt
She reached into her pocket,
Grabbed some change, set it on the table
Got up and pushed in her chair
She took out a cigarette
Put it in her lips, took a drag, and said
"Thank God I'm getting out of here"
Chorus:
Why do you you
Run away
Why do you
Run away
Don't feel bad
It's okay
Everyone
Runs away
Verse:
On the road she looks up into the rear-view mirror
Is there someone following
She's not really sure
Her bag is packed in the back
She doesn't have a destination
She knows she'll settle somewhere
There's flashing lights behind her
A cop pulls her over
And fixes her with a stare
He looks at her legs
"Ma'am did you know you were speeding?"
Says the woman, "Sir, I really don't care"
Bridge:
Running
Running
Away
Running
Running
Away
