Sydney (I'll Come Running)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Okay, alright, alright

Sydney, whenever you feel unhappy

All you have to do is call me

I can make you laugh

Sydney, I know that you were wrongly accused

I hope you don't lose your sense of humor

Allegations made in the school yard

Soccer moms gossip in the dog park

Their bark is worse then their bite

They're only a couple of crazy cougars

They're bored and spreading their desperate rumors

You know that I was never that cool

But I won't be taken for a fool

If they wanna talk trash

They can talk, talk, talk

But they better come correct

And if you ever need me, call me

I'll come runnin' straight to you

Straight from the airport

(I'll come runnin')

Cut through the customs line

(I'll come runnin')

Bust down the courthouse doors

(I'll come runnin')

Sydney, I will testify

(I'll come runnin')

Sydney, I will testify to ya

We were in the basement

Just giving our blood on stage and

Pretending that we were famous

While you were getting framed

I went back to my room in surrey hills, yes I did

I didn't know you were in trouble until you came in

Just as skinny as a twig in my kitchen

And told me I was looking at a dead man

I said: Sydney, you're wrong

There's a lot of good people living in la, yes there are and

We won't let nobody take you away, no we won't

You know I was never that cool

But I won't be taken for a fool

If the wanna talk trash they can talk, talk, talk

But they better come correct

And if you ever need me you just call me

I'll come runnin' to you

Straight from the airport

(I'll come runnin')

Cut through the customs line

(I'll come runnin')

Bust down the courthouse doors

(I'll come runnin')

Sydney I will testify

(I'll come runnin')

Sydney I will testify

(I'll come runnin')

I will testify

(I'll come running')

I will testify

(I'll come runnin')

To ya, to ya, to ya

Sydney whenever you think you need me

Call me up and I'll come runnin' straight to you

I was never that cool

But I won't be taken for a fool

If the wanna talk trash they can talk, talk, talk

But they better come correct

And if you ever need me you just call me

I come runnin' to ya

Straight from the airport

(I'll come runnin')

Cut through the customs line

(I'll come runnin')

Bust down the courthouse doors

(I'll come runnin')

Sydney I will testify

(I'll come runnin')

Sydney I will testify

(I'll come runnin')

I will testify

(I'll come running')

I will testify

(I'll come runnin')

To ya, to ya, to ya

I will testify
