run, run, run, run for your life
little missus is coming at you with a knife
just beneath her skirt, so neatly
just a smile from her can cure you completely
but still, i can't help feeling blue when i'm with you
it's just your words that's calling me to follow through
your painted heart is made of ocean waves and glue
i need a 7 Up cup for me to put my 7 Up in
run, run, run, run for your life
little missus is coming at you with a knife
just beneath her skirt, so neatly
just a smile from her can cure you completely
it's there alone that i'll escape into your tomb
our words are meaningless, but i will follow through with you
everything falls apart when i just have a few
outside the world is ending, but i'll know when it's new
run, run, run, run for your life
little missus is coming at you with a knife
just beneath her skirt, so neatly
just a smile from her can cure you completely
