Run, run as fast as they can They can’t catch the gingerbread man A thousand miles of road behind I’ve got to run, yes I’ve got to hide
If my scent is picked up Then I’ll thrown them off the trail I’ll stow away, I’ll steal a car, I’ll ride the rails Black helicopters shining lights on where I’ve been And in a dumpster they won’t see me flash a grin. I’ll win
I’m gonna fight tooth and nail (yeah)
But in the meanwhile
I’m on the run On the run On the run
Fake ID cards and I’ve got a new disguise And I hope I go unnoticed because no one’s seen my eyes I slide through in public view I do what I’ve got to do Be it run or take a stand I become the every man and fade away
Just like a chameleon I rearrange my style Moving past security I nod and flash a smile Now I’ll need a decoy, now where’s a “dancing monkey” They ain’t catching this boy cause I’m just far too funky, baby
I’m gonna fight tooth and nail (yeah) I’m gonna fight tooth and nail (yeah)
But in the meanwhile
I’m on the run On the run On the run
The message has come The planet is done Look up to the skies And open your eyes
