lyrics

When I wakes up for breakfast
I can feel it in my bones
And I goes on every day of my life
Acting like nothing is wrong

I likes to feel my heart a-pumpin’
And it ain’t never beat so hard
Yeah well I’m a two-bit master criminal nitwit
And I’m letting down my guard

I likes to think I’m in the movies
I thinks I got no fatal flaw
Yeah well I never stops!
To take a moment and consider
The long arm of The Law

Well I’m always runnin’ and a-runnin’
I don’t stop
I’m always runnin’ and a-runnin’
I don’t stop
I’m always runnin’
I don’t stop to consider the long arm of The Law

I always thinks it’s my last time
But then I starts to feel the call
Yeah well it’s not my fault that I never stopped to consider
The long arm of The Law

Hey Mr. Policeman
Did you have to make me fall?
Yeah and for this two-bit master criminal nitwit
There’s a last time after all

I just gotta bust my way out
From this same old tired routine
Livin’ straight and clean
It just too much to ask for
Just too much for me

Run away, run away, run away
Run away from your heart
Run away run away run away
Back to the start
