lyrics

RUN
Get up!
You run to beat the day
Get up!
Gonna run your life away
Living in traffic
Jammed from end to end

Don’t stop!
The metro pulls away
Don’t stop!
Roadblocks leading you astray
Running for the meter – it's too late

Tickets under every wiper
Tell me, why do you wait?

RUN!
Catch the train or
Catch some hell,
Late again
RUN!
Don’t stop now
Don’t ask why
Don’t ask how

Get up!
Running every day
Get up!
And the brass ring slips away

You’re going in circles
You’ve missed the right of way

Don't stop!
Your bills are coming due
Don't stop!
And you haven't got a clue
Heels on fire, eyes are too

Your lonely smile has come undone
Exhaustion takes its due

RUN!
Catch the train or
Catch some hell,
Late again
RUN!
Don’t stop now
Don’t look back,
Don’t ask how

[SOLO]

Sometimes you wonder if the prize is really worth it
Sometimes you wonder what you'd see
If you slowed down
Sometimes you wonder why it is you have to...

RUN!
Catch the train or
Catch some hell,
Late again
RUN!
Don’t stop now
Don’t ask why
Don’t ask how

RUN!
Catch the train or
Catch some hell,
Late again
RUN!
Don’t stop now
Don’t ask why
Don’t ask how
