I remember back when I was still in school, These bullies always picked on me, they called me a fool. They knocked me on the ground! (OH! ) They rubbed dog poop in my ears! (OW! ) They kicked me! (Oh) They punched me! (Ow) They said; "Come and fight, you wimp!"
(What'd you do! ?)
I faked I had an injury then I ran away! I ran away, (I ran away) I ran away! (I ran a-eh-eh-eh-eh ran so far away) Danger stared me in the face and I ran away! (Oooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, I ran away! ) The children always laughed at me after that day, When I said I tore my ACL and I ran away!
I was playing one day in my back yard, When I made the perfect snowball, round and smooth and hard. I spotted nasty Ted Jablonski! (Oooh) I let fly the perfect snowball! (Yeah! ) It smashed the neighbors windshield! (Oh-oh! ) He came out and said; "Who the hell did that! ?"
(Whaat'd youu doo! ?)
I pointed at my sister and then I ran away! I ran away, (I ran away) I ran away! (I ran a-eh-eh-eh-eh ran so far away) Danger stared me in the face and I ran away! (Oooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, I ran away! ) My sister was ground for three years and a day, So I said she was adopted and then I ran away!
I was walking with my girlfriend one night, (Aww) Two guys were sitting on a bench, they pointed at her and said; "She's a fat, ugly tramp!" (Ooh! ) "She smells like peanut butter!" (Hey! ) "She's a loser!" (OH! "She's pedantic!" (OI! ) "She's a mediocre soccer player!" My girlfriend said; "Make them stop!"
(Whaat'd yoouu dooo! ?)
I dumped my girlfriend on the spot then I ran away! I ran away, (I ran away) I ran away! (I ran a-eh-eh-eh-eh ran so far away) Danger stared me in the face and I ran away! (Oooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, I ran away! ) The honor of my woman was one the line that day, So I told my girlfriend I was gay and I ran away!
I was walking by myself last week, (yeah) When the devil himself appeared in front of me. (oh) He had fire all around him! (AIII! ) He smelled like a burning tire dump! (WOOOW! ) He opened his mouth and said; "Mike! You're next!"
(Whaaat'd yoouuu dooo! ?)
I came up to the devil! (Oh yeah! ) I poked the devil on the shoulder! (That's right! )
I said look over there, and then I ran away! I ran away, (I ran away) I ran away! (I ran a-eh-eh-eh-eh ran so far away) Danger stared me in the face and I ran away! (Oooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, I ran away! ) I'm hoping that the devil smokes two packs a day, Cause my day of reckoning is here and I ran away!
I ran away, (I ran away) I ran away! (I ran a-eh-eh-eh-eh ran so far away) Danger stared me in the face and I ran away! (Oooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, I ran away! ) Whenever I was challenged I collapsed like a souffle, But I'm still alive to sing this song cause I ran away!
Oh yes I ran, (Oh yes he ran! ) Oh yes I ran, (Oh yes he ran! ) I ran away!
