Ooh run away lucky while you still know the way

If you're looking' for your chance for one good payday

Do you really think you've got a ghost of a chance?

It's the coldest of towns to be lookin' for romance

Ooh run away baby - you're too young to see

The way it's goin' down on the city streets

When trouble comes around there is no mystery

You're running' from it all so you better run now

Love is in pieces - put it back together now

It's supposed to be easy - but it's so so mad

All the things we say

When the world's gone crazy - it's so hard to handle

Sooner or later it'll all come clearer

When love is in love again

Ooh pictures in the paper of the faces you've seen

Walking down the halls where justice is done

What they say they say is not what they mean?

A different set of rules than are meant for you and me

Everybody's looking for an easier way

So go go go go

Everybody running from a shadow today

But they run so slow
