Run, Run, Run!

(Verse)
When I was much younger
My pop was broken hearted
He said “go find your lover”
And that’s where it started

I looked and I looked
In trunks and on shelves
But all I found were books
Full of fairy tales

I felt a little hopeless
I felt a little dumb
I became a little vicious
All I could do was run

(Bridge)
Humpty Dumpty had this “great” fall
I pushed him
I pushed him

And I think I cracked his shell
Oh well

(Chorus)
Run, run, run
As fast as you can
Past the sun
And find the man

With this funny looking hook
For a hand
Ask him where to look
For your lover’s hand

(Verse)
So I climbed onto the deck
To find my soul mate
But when I went to check
I found pirates, not my date

I found the captain there
He was looking kinda strange
He saw me from his chair
And his expression changed

He said “Yar be a cookie!”
And I’m thinking what the heck
But his crew was kinda spooky
So I left the deck

(Bridge)
I saw a princess and a toad
They’re kissing
They’re kissing

I felt so much despair
Do I dare?

(Chorus)
Run, run, run
As fast as you can
To Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb
Ask them if they can

Help you find your lover
Out on the sand
There can be no other
In Wonderland

(Verse)
This is my last stop
I said in my brain
Then it’s back to my pop
On Jury Lane

I said “Where do I look?”
But to my surprise
Dumb pointed left
But Dee he pointed right

That’s when I got to thinking
I am one, I am whole
And the Tweedles started laughing
So I kicked them down the Rabbit’s Hole

(Bridge)
I saw a cat and a fiddle
A playing
A playing

And the light bulb that lights up
Blew up

(Chorus)
Run, run, run
As fast as you can
You can’t catch me
This is who I am

Run, run, run
As fast as you can
And when it’s said and done
I’ll be in a rock ‘n roll band

(Verse)
From drums to the cello
My love for music’s vibrant
But for people it is mellow
Unless they be applauding

The music’s got me going
It’s got me going good
So I let it keep me going
To Granny’s, like Red Riding Hood

Hear me my story, my friends
Run, run, faster
Cuz this is not the end
In fact, it’s the next chapter

(Bridge)
I could sit in a tower
Just waiting
Just waiting

But instead I beat the drums
Rum pum

(Chorus)
Run, run, run
As fast as you can
I’ll beat the drums
In a rock n roll band

Music and me
Go hand and hand
Everyone can see
That it’s who I am

(The end)
