| We were young and had it all figured out
|
| She was the quiet one and I had the mouth
|
| Until she fell to me (Ooh, oh)
|
| We escaped through the alley in the back
|
| Judge told me, «Creature, don’t you dare go back!»
|
| But I couldn’t dodge the ringing in my head
|
| Her lonely, subtle voice,
|
| through the echoes
|
| as it said
|
| «Please don’t leave me here, my love»
|
| Oh, pretty angel, swinging from your cable
|
| I fear, my dear, the end is near
|
| So run, run, run, run, run like a son of a gun
|
| Did anybody treat you better?
|
| To obey and follow to the letter
|
| I fear, my dear, the end is here
|
| So run, run, run, run, run like a son of a gun
|
| There was something I forgot to tell her then
|
| Between the kiss and, «Knock 'em dead, kid»
|
| «There will be no other like you» (Oh, oh)
|
| Now I can’t keep the guilt from my heart (Ooh)
|
| These stuttering emotions keep me fixed to fall apart
|
| And I know I’m leaving all this sweat in our bed
|
| A broken heart bleeding with a gun to my head
|
| Oh, pretty angel, swinging from your cable
|
| I fear, my dear, the end is near
|
| So run, run, run, run, run like a son of a gun
|
| Did anybody treat you better?
|
| To obey and follow to the letter
|
| I fear, my dear, the end is here
|
| So run, run, run, run, run like a son of a gun
|
| Like a son of a gun
|
| A son of a gun
|
| The weight of the world on the shoulders, can you feel the thunder?
|
| All unheavenly creatures (Oh, oh, all the unheavenly creatures)
|
| We’re all unheavenly creatures
|
| On the way to the car, I heard her voice a little louder
|
| «Please don’t leave me here, my love»
|
| Oh, pretty angel, swinging from your cable
|
| I fear, my dear, the end is near
|
| So run, run, run, run, run like a son of a gun
|
| Did anybody treat you better?
|
| To obey and follow to the letter
|
| I fear, my dear, the end is here
|
| So run, run, run, run, run like a son of a gun
|
| Oh, pretty angel, swinging from your cable
|
| I fear, my dear, the end is near
|
| So run, run, run, run, run like a son of a gun
|
| Did anybody treat you better?
|
| To obey and follow to the letter
|
| I fear, my dear, the end is here
|
| So run, run, run, run, run like a son of a gun |
