Run for Your Life (Re-Recording) |
| Tension in the city |
| Danger in the air |
| I can hear the footsteps of people running scared |
| Somebody is watching me |
| I can feel it in my bones |
| And now the night is callin' me |
| Callin' me back home |
| Run for your life |
| Run to survive |
| The streets are alive |
| So you’d better run for your life |
| Another broken window |
| Reflects another fight |
| Another confrontation is being planned tonight |
| Look! |
| I don’t wanna be no hero |
| I just wanna stay alive |
| Can’t we talk this over |
| 'cause I don’t want to fight |
| Run for your life |
| Run to survive |
| The streets are a Ive |
| So you’d better run for your life |
| Keep on runnin, keep on runnin' |
| 'cause they keep on comin' at you |
| Hatches, ratches, sticks and stones |
| They don’t care if you’re young or old |
| Replisants, handguns, shotguns, and rubberbullets |
| Then they hit you with the TV-reports of the downtrodden |
| And the opressed |
| Meanwhile… you’re obsessed |
| But the fast is it’s you everybody is talking about |
| Got to keep on running |
| Cause the people keep on comin' |
| And they’re comin' after you and me |
| Got to keep on moving |
| 'cause the shadows keep on moving |
| And they’re movin' in on you and me |
| L’m looking for direction and l’m looking for protection |
| And I want to escape the knife |
| So you’d better run for your life |
| Run for your life |
| Run to survive |
| The streets are aIive |
| So you’d better run for your life |
| Run For Your Life |
| Yeah!!! |
